Brazil Country Commercial Guide Brazil - Market Overview Brazil
Last Published: 9/5/2019 Brazil represents an excellent market for experienced U.S. exporters across various sectors. In addition to the domestic appetite for U.S. products and high opinion regarding their quality and value, there have been several significant national successes in the past two years:
Open Skies: In May 2018, the U.S. and Brazil finalized the Open Skies agreement which expands opportunities for future air travel and commerce between the U.S. and Brazil.
ATA Carnet: Brazil became the third country in Latin America to adopt the ATA Carnet which allows the free temporary entry of U.S. goods.
Visa Requirement Waiver: Beginning June 17, 2019 U.S. citizens, with a valid passport, may travel to Brazil without a visa for tourism purposes. This also covers travelers’ transiting through Brazil. Visitors will be granted up to 90 days to stay, which can be extended once for the same period as long as it does not exceed 180 days within a 12-month period counted from the date of first entry.
Brazil is the largest country in South America. Following the United States, it is the second largest economy in the Western Hemisphere, and the eighth fastest-growing source of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the United States in 2017, according to SelectUSA, the USG's investment promotion program. U.S. FDI in Brazil (stock) was $68.3 billion in 2017, a 2.8 percent increase from 2016. U.S. direct investment in Brazil is led by manufacturing, finance and insurance, and mining. According to the United Nations Council on Trade and Development World Investment Report 2018, global FDI destined to South America increased by 10 percent as recessions in the two leading South American economies, Argentina and Brazil, ended. Specifically, FDI in Brazil increased by 8 percent to $63 billion supported by a significant influx in the energy sector.
In 2018, Brazil was the United States’ ninth largest export market, and our second-largest trading partner. Last year, the United States exported $66.2 billion in goods and services to Brazil – up 4.2 percent from 2017, and imported $36.1 billion in goods and services from Brazil – up 3.1 percent from 2017. The primary products traded include crude oil, aircraft, iron and steel, and machinery.
Brazil was our 13th largest goods trading partner with $70.7 billion in total (two-way) trade in goods during 2018. As a result, the U.S. trade surplus with Brazil increased over 7 percent to $30.1 billion. In 2018, U.S. exports to Brazil accounted for 2.6 percent of our global exports, and imports from Brazil accounted for 1.2 percent of global imports. Industrial supplies and materials dominated, accounting for 29.3 percent of U.S. exports to Brazil, and imports were led by industrial supplies and materials, which accounted for 45.4 percent of U.S. imports from Brazil. In 2017, the direct investment position from Brazil in the United States was - $2.0 billion. (Source: U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Economic Analysis). On January 1, 2019 Brazil inaugurated a new President Jair Bolsonaro who declared that Brazil wanted the U.S. to be Brazil’s number one trading partner – opening the potential for a stronger trade relationship with Brazil. Brazil - Energy
Last Published: 8/16/2019
Overview In the Brazilian Energy Expansion Plan (PDE) for 2024, published by the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy (MME), the Brazilian energy matrix shows that renewable sources will maintain a high share of 45 percent in 2024, compared with the 39 percent observed in 2014. The aggregate “other sources” (wind, biodiesel, solar, and black-liquor) will contribute to the growth of renewables followed by hydro energy and sugar cane products. In fossil fuels, oil and gas will reduce their participation, and coal will increase slightly. Nuclear energy is expected to grow due to the entry into operation of the Angra 3 power plant.

Leading Sub-Sectors
Oil and Gas Brazil is the largest oil producer in South America, the ninth largest global oil producer, seventh largest oil consumer, and has the largest recoverable ultra-deep (pre-salt) oil reserves in the world. Brazil’s oil production is predominantly offshore (94 percent). Significant energy reforms, frequent oil finds, along with recent and future oil bidding rounds have been attracting International Oil Companies (IOCs) from around the world to bid on opportunities in Brazil. Additionally, there is an increased potential for U.S. exports of equipment and services with lower local content requirements, plus new investments in exploration, production, and refining by Brazil’s national oil company Petrobras and others estimated at $100 billion over the next several years.
Nuclear Brazil has a promising civil nuclear energy market. The country’s two nuclear reactors supply nearly two percent of Brazil’s energy. Government-owned Eletronuclear (ETN) has recently approved its investment plan of R$13.8 billion (approximately $4 billion) for the 2019-2023 period. The conclusion of the third nuclear power reactor is pending availability of financial sources and a new business model to allow private sector participation. The new Brazilian Minister of Mines and Energy has recently announced that the 2050 Long-Term Energy Expansion Plan, currently under draft, may include between four to eight new nuclear power plants.
Electric Power Systems Brazil is the largest electricity market in Latin America. Brazil generates and distributes more electricity (to over 79 million residential, commercial, and industrial consumers) than all the power produced in its South American neighbors combined. Electricity load growth in Brazil is about 5 percent per year, so the country must integrate about 4 GW of new generation power capacity every year to keep up with the load growth. According to MME, electricity demand is expected to increase at 4.2 percent per year until 2024, which will demand the addition of 79 GW of installed total generation capacity (41 GW already contracted), 70,000 km of transmission lines and 163 GVA in substations. To fulfill this plan will require investments of around $142 billion.
Generation: Brazil has a total of 160 GW in installed capacity, of which 77 percent is from renewable resources, mainly hydropower. Natural gas and biomass represent 9 percent each, while nuclear accounts for nearly 2 percent. According to MME, installed power generation capacity is expected to reach 212 GW by 2024 and it will require around $101 billion in investments.
Transmission: Brazil has a country-wide interconnected grid of 130,000 km of high voltage transmission lines. Fifty percent of the power transmission companies in Brazil are privately-owned. International groups, such as Sterlite Power from India and State Grid from China, have been actively growing their presence in this segment by winning several auctions for new transmission lines. According to the MME, approximately $41 billion will be invested in transmission until 2024.

Electric Power Systems and Renewable Energy Data analytics Components: Moderate opportunities to supply existing plants, one of which was built by Westinghouse, with engineering support, fuel components, waste handling systems and related materials.
Renewable Energy Brazil generates 77 percent of its electricity from renewable resources. Brazil’s commitment to renewable energy is strong and continued investment is expected in wind, solar, and hydropower capacity growth in the future.
Brazil uses auction-based renewable procurement to increase new generation capacity. By contracting via electricity auctions, Brazil can ensure renewable development in Brazil. Contracts have durations between 15 and 30 years.
Hydropower represents 63 percent of the Brazilian electricity matrix. Hydropower generation is complementary to other renewable resources in Brazil, allowing for hydro reservoirs along with the countrywide transmission grid used to modulate and integrate seasonal and intermittent power generation from other renewables.
Wind power is the second largest source of energy in Brazil with 15 GW of installed capacity, besides an additional 4.6 GW, already contracted or under construction, to come online by 2023. Brazil has 601 wind farms using 7,000 wind turbines.
New solar energy developments over the long term could potentially rival investments in wind power. Solar energy already accounts for 2.1 GW in installed capacity in Brazil and should reach 3.7 GW by 2022. Investments in utility-scale solar energy projects, already contracted in the energy auctions, will reach over U.S. $5 billion by 2022. U.S. $1 billion has have been invested in solar distributed generation since 2012, and this amount is expected to increase exponentially in the next few years.
Opportunities Every year, the MME publishes an expansion plan (PDE) that presents, for the period of the next ten years, the results of prospective studies of energy demand and supply, and related projects such as electricity generation power plants, transmission lines, oil refineries, oil exploration blocks, oil and gas pipelines, and bioenergy production facilities. The planned investments through 2024 are shown on the table below:
