Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 7 Definitions
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 8 ODEX The ODEX is an indicator that measures the energy efficiency progress. It can be combined by sector (industrial, residential, services and transport) or for the whole economy. The ODEX is being used by the European Union in the ODYSSEE database program to track efficiency gains (Enerdata, 2020). The ODEX by sector (e.g. industry) is based on specific consumption indexes by subsector (cement, ceramics, textiles, etc.) and weighted by its share on the total energy consumption. The specific consumption by subsector can be expressed in different units to provide the best energy efficiency proxy, such as consumption per household, consumption per physical production or consumption per transport activity (measured in units such as passenger-kilometre and tonne-kilometre). For this report, 2005 was taken as the base year (value = 100), essentially due to the data availability for most sectors from that year onwards. A decrease in the ODEX from 100 in 2005 to 80 in any given year, for example, represents a 20% gain in energy efficiency over the analyzed period. In other hand, if the ODEX increases from 100 to 120, means that the energy efficiency declined over the years. In the case of the global ODEX, the same method is applied with weighted factors, based on the share of each sector on the total final energy consumption, in relation to the total final energy considered for all the evaluated sectors. For this report purposes, the industrial, residential and transport sectors were considered. Other sectors (energy, services and agriculture) were not included due to the data unavailability in the appropriate format for the indicator calculation. This edition of the Atlas of Energy Efficiency have methodological changes, in other to improve the sectors representativeness in the ODEX, as well as its calculation. Therefore, the variations in historical ODEX data in this edition, compared to previous editions, can be explained by the main changes: ▪historical data series used to calculate the ODEX updates; ▪use of the 3-year moving-average for the ODEX in all the sectors, in compatibility with the methodology proposed by Odyssee database; ▪improvements in the indicators choice to calculate the ODEX for the residential and transport sectors.
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 9 Energy Intensity Energy intensity refers to the amount of energy required to produce one final product or service. It is the ratio between an energy indicator (ton oil equivalent [toe], Joule, calorie, Btu, among others) and an activity indicator (U$, R$, m², ton-kilometers, passenger-kilometers, among others). Hypotheticalexamples: ▪IndustrialEnergyintensity:100toe/U$ppp2010 ▪Energy intensity of residential building: 0.5 toe/m² ▪Energy intensity of commercial building: 200 KJ/m² ▪Energy intensity in the transport sector: 1,000 toe/tkm The energy intensity of an economy corresponds to the ratio of Internal Energy Supply divided by the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of the country. This indicator is typically used to measure a country's energy efficiency. However, it's important to notice that this ratio does not necessarily express energy efficiency. It means that a country with low energy intensity may still be inefficient from an energy perspective. For example, consider the case of a small country with an economy based on the service sector. This country may have lower energy intensity than another large nation with an economy based in industrial production. However, the second country may efficiently use more energy in its industries compared to the first, which utilizes energy for developing a trade and service-based economy. Thus, the energy intensity should not be analyzed alone. Efficiency gains are only one component of this analysis, which must also consider the structure (structural effect) of a country's economy (involvement of intensive-energy industries, developed services sector, etc.) and activity changes (activity effect), which are influenced by the country’s size (implying in higher transport sector demand, for example). In this report, the indicator will be established in two ways: from the perspective of total energy supply (TESp), identified as Primary Intensity (i), and from the perspective of final energy consumption, denoted as Final Intensity (ii). I.TotalEnergySupply(thousandtoe)/GDP(M$[2010]) II.FinalEnergyConsumption(thousandtoe)/GDP(M$[2010])
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 10 Final Consumption This is all the energy that reaches consumption sector for energy and non-energy purposes (raw material, for example). The sources used as input or raw material for transformation into other energy products are not included in this concept. These activities are ranged, according to the Brazilian Energy Balance, as Transformation Centers (examples: water used to generate electricity or oil that will be transformed into gasoline, diesel oil, etc.). In general, the sectors in this report are ranged according to the Brazilian Energy Balance, except for some intensive-energy sectors, to depict better the energy efficiency progress in Brazil. Final consumption can be calculated in the following ways: ▪Finalconsumption=primary final consumption (+) secondary final consumption, or; ▪Finalconsumption=non-energy final consumption (+) final energy consumption Where: ▪Primary final consumption is the consumption of primary energy, i.e., consumption from sources coming directly from nature. Examples: natural gas, mineral coal, solar, wind, hydro and sugar cane products, among others ▪Secondary final consumption is the consumption of secondary energy, i.e., consumption from sources coming from different transformation centers, for a different economy sectors destination. Examples: electricity, gasoline, diesel oil, ethanol, among others. ▪Non-energy final consumption corresponds to the consumption of sources that, although they have energy content, are used as raw materials for other purposes. Example: use of naphtha for the thermoplastics manufacture. ▪Final energy consumption is the use of sources by sectors of the economy as energy.
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 11 INOVA-E The INOVA-E digital platform was developed to provide information about innovation in energy in Brazil accessible to a wide range of audiences. In its investment module, the strategic information available on the platform has been arranged into a single database, presenting a relevant overview for understanding the country’s investment trends in energy RD&D. This unprecedented overview provided by INOVA-E attempt to support EPE, MME, MCTI, among other government parties, private and civil society organizations, formulating and promoting public policies aimed on Brazilian energy transition. In its most recent update, the platform's RD&D investment module underwent several methodological improvements, which resulted in the expansion of mapped investments and the inclusion of projects in the investment history. Public investment in R&D - Public investment in R&D are calculated based on expenditure on reimbursable and non-reimbursable R&D projects carried out by public institutions that promote innovation in Brazil. The statistics presented on this platform include the following federal bodies: BNDES, CNEN, CNPq, FINEP; and the state of São Paulo: FAPESP. Publicly oriented investment in R&D - Publicly oriented investment refers to private investment driven by public policies, being compulsory for companies in the energy sector. These are resources that fall under public programs whose purpose is to induce companies to invest in RD&D. The statistics presented on this platform include R&D projects regulated by the ANEEL and ANP agencies. For more details, visit: Energy innovation investments in Brazil overviewing

Transport Sector
Activity
Activity in the transports sector is internationally represented by the indicators passenger-kilometer and ton-kilometer transported. Passenger-
kilometer is a unit that relates the relative work to the passenger displacement over one-kilometer displacement. Similarly, ton-kilometer is the unit
that represents the relative work to the displacement of a ton of cargo over one kilometer distance. It is also called as transport momentum.
Intensity of use
Ratio between transport activity and distance traveled. It is expressed in ton-kilometer/kilometer or Passenger-kilometer/kilometer.
Fuel Economy
Ratio of the distance traveled by passengers or cargo and the fuel consumption in volume and expressed as a measure of range. Usually in
kilometers/Liter.
Fuel Consumption
It is the spent fuel amount (volume) to , usually 100 km. It is expressed in Liters/100km.
Energy Efficiency
Ratio of estimated activity (t.km or p.km) to total energy demand (in units with Joule [J], Watt [W] or ton oil equivalent [toe]).

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 19 ShareofrenewablesintheEnergyMix Historically, Brazil is known as a country with a high percentage of renewable energy sources in its internal supply, when compared worldwide. In the last 20 years, the renewables energies share in Brazilian matrix has remained stable, over 40%, which is big challenge for the country. Recently, between 2011 and 2014, there was a reduction in the renewable energies share due a decrease in hydraulic supply, associated with less rainfall. Since 2015, renewable sources recovered the growth trajectory because of the expansion of sugarcane derivatives, wind and biodiesel supply, reaching 47% in 2022 also associated with the favorable hydrological situation.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 20 Renewable sources grew in a fast pace due to sugar-alcohol sector expansion and other renewable sources strong insets, such as wind, bleach and biodiesel. With a negligible share in 2000, wind energy has shown increasing participation in the energy matrix, reaching 2.3% of the Internal Energy Supply in 2022. Bleach, directly associated with the cellulose industry, contributed 3.7% of OIE in 2022. Biodiesel has been favored because of the policies of adding this fuel to fossil diesel. In 2022, the percentage added (in volume) was 10% throughout the year. Brazil is the world's second largest producer of biodiesel, behind the United States, and the raw material most used to make it in the country is soybean oil. Figure 3: Total Energy Supply (TES) by source in selected years Source: EPE (2023b) Evolution of Total Energy Supply (TES) by source In the field of non-renewable energies, oil and its derivatives are still the largest share. However, natural gas has been the spotlight, with its share rising from 5.4% in 2000 to 10.5% in 2022 due to its use in basic thermoelectric plants and the extension of the pipeline network, which has made it possible to use it in industries as well as in residential, commercial and public buildings. 45.6% 37.8% 37.2% 32.9% 35.7% 10.2% 13.6% 11.7% 10.5% 15.8% 14% 11.3% 12.5% 12.5% 12.1% 9.7% 8.3% 9.1% 9% 12.8% 21.1% 21.8% 27% 25.9% 20002010201520202022 Sugarcane products / Other renewable Firewood and charcoal Hydropower Uranium (U₃O₈) / Other non-renewable Coal and coal coke Natural gas Oil and its products
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 21 Evolution of energy consumption by sector The main noted movement in this period was the decrease in the industry share, in contrast to the advance of the transport sector, which overtook industrial consumption in 2018, 2019 and 2022. The transport sector grew up in an average rate of 2.9% per year (2000-2022), and more sharply between 2000 and 2015, with a road sector growing share. In 2020 the sector was impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic and the consequent repercussions on the economy and restrictions on travel, especially by air, but it recovered and in 2022 it had the highest energy consumption among the others. Figure 4: Energy consumption by sector in selected years Source: EPE (2023b) 38.5% 38.1% 34.4% 34.1%34% 30.2% 31.1% 34.4% 32.9% 35% 13.2% 10.7% 10.4% 11.7% 11.3% 8.2% 11%11% 10.9% 9.2% 20002010201520202022 Energy sector Residential Tertiary and others Agriculture Transport Industrial (non-energy uses excluded) In industry, the most stood out the segments were pulp and paper (4.1% per year), food and beverages (2.75% per year) and ferroalloys (2.6% per year). It should be noted that pulp and sugar production are energy- intensive and use the co-products bleach and sugarcane bagasse, respectively, which are renewable. Cement/steel aggregate has reduced its industrial consumption share from 29.9% to 23.7%. The cement industry, in addition to the gradual reduction in the clinker/cement ratio from 73.2% in 2000 to 68.2% in 2022 (clinker is energy intensive). The energy sector is driven by oil and ethanol production, which grew up in an annual rates of 4.1% and 4.3% over the period. Ethanol production, however, fell by 13.3% between 2020 and 2022.
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 22 Between 2010 and 2022, the primary and final intensities grew up on rates of 0.07% and 0.05% per year, respectively, reflecting OIE growth over the GDP growth. Between 2014 and 2022, primary energy intensity fell at a rate of 0.4% per year. Final consumption intensity, over the same period, grew at a rate of 0.1% per year. The upward trend in energy intensity may be associated with the growth in the production of low value-added energy-intensive products production growth, related to other manufactured products. EnergyIntensity From 2000 to 2008, primary energy intensity remained stable at around 0.097 toe/10³U$ppp[2010]. Likewise, the final intensity stabilized at around 0.087 toe/10³U$ppp[2010]. In 2009, the effects of the international crisis on industry contributed to a reduction in primary energy intensity to 0.093 toe/10³U$ppp[2010]. More inefficient units with higher intensities were shut down.

Based on INOVA-E, the previous version of the Atlas showed a 56% share of BNDES funding for energy efficiency. However, the methodological improvements presented in the current version of the platform included, in the energy efficiency category, several projects from the BNDES' funding. The history for the other sources of funding remained unchanged. Brazil is investing in Energy Efficiency Competitive sectors such as industry depend on energy efficiency in their production processes and regular working days. Without it, many businesses could become unviable. Technological changes is one of the main sources of wealth creation and long-term economic growth. According to the INOVA-E platform¹, between 2013 and 2022, Brazil invested almost R$ 5 billion in researches, development and demonstration (RD&D), in energy efficiency projects from public or publicly oriented investments². From this amount, more than a half came from the BNDES (National Development Bank), while ANEEL (National Electricity Agency) and Finep (Financing Agency for Studies and Projects) accounted for 13% and 11% respectively.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 28 EvolutioninBuildings’consumption:residential,commercialandpublicsector The main source of energy used in buildings is electricity¹. In 2022, households used 46% electricity, 22% LPG and 26% firewood, while commercial and public buildings mostly use electricity with a 90% share. Note: the public sector includes public lighting and sanitation services. [1] According to the historical series, electricity has been the main source since 2008. In 2022, buildings consumed 239 TWh, which represents 41% of the country's electricity. Considering the attendance of buildings in electricity consumption, this sector can be considered to have the biggest potential for electrical efficiency.

This new methodology brings important advances and enables PBE Edifica to be aligned with the Brazilian Standard for the residential buildings performance, NBR 15575/2021, and allows consumers to have the building potential consumption information, or residential unit, and how much energy can be saved as well, compared to a standard building. Note: PBE is the Brazillian Labeling Programme Residential buildings with independent apartments are the most labeled, with 92% sharing of the total accumulated in the full length of time. Building Labeling Evolution – Brazilian Labeling Programme (PBE Edifica) PROCEL EDIFICA - the National Programme for Energy Efficiency in Buildings - is 20 years old this year and building labeling in Brazil is 14 years old, through the publication of methodologies to classify the energy efficiency level for commercial, service and public buildings in 2009 and for residential buildings in 2010. The label can be applied to during the design phase, as well to the constructed building. The figure shows the buildings addition cumulative data about this policy, which informs the building's performance requirements.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 31 Evolution of energy consumption in Households by source Electricity is still widely most used energy source in Brazilian households, with an increase in its energy share around 13.6% between 2005 and 2022. It is broadly used in homes and can be used for air conditioning, food conserving, cooking and preparing, water heating, lighting, laundry, entertainment, communications, personal beauty and in electrical and electronic equipment. There is a reduction in the firewood use for cooking from 2005 to 2015, due to the improvement in families' economic conditions. Since 2015, the energy share of firewood is remaining around 25%. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) keeps up as an intermediate share (22% in 2022), and its main use is associated with food cooking. Natural Gas (NG) is included in Other category (see the Figure) and is used for food cooking and water heating, mainly in urban country areas with distribution grid. Solar thermal energy is also included in Other category and is used for water heating. 33% 39% 44% 45% 46% 26% 26% 26% 24% 22% 37% 31% 25% 25% 26% 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 20052010201520202022 Electricity LPG Firewood Others Figure 14: Evolution of energy consumption in Households by source Source: EPE (2023b)
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 32 Evolution of electricity and energy consumption in households While energy consumption per household fell by 10.7% (0.5% down, per year) from 2000 to 2022, electricity demand per household grew up by 19% (0.8% up, per year) in the same period. Energy and electricity demand sharply felt in 2001 due to the country's electricity rationing, which stimulated a change in habits and promoted energy efficiency measures in Brazilian households. Figure 15: Evolution of electricity and energy consumption in households Source: Compiled by EPE Electricity demand increased from 2000 to 2022 due to the economic progress of families, the advance of credit for the household appliances purchase, government electrical connection policies, mainly in rural areas, and housing program and incentives to reduce the Brazilian housing deficit. On the other hand, energy consumption fell over the period owing of the reduction in the less energy-efficient sources using (traditional biomass - firewood and charcoal) and the consequent replacement by more modern sources (LPG, NG and electricity). It's important to note that energy consumption per household started to rise in 2014, due to the return to the use of traditional biomass for cooking food, replacing LPG, which is relatively more expensive, especially in poorer families in a consequence of the economic crisis. 0,30 0,40 0,50 0,60 1.200 1.500 1.800 2.100 2.400 200020022004200620082010201220142016201820202022 toe per household kWh per household Electricity Energy (right axis) 0.60 0.50 0.40 0.30
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 33 Effects of energy efficiency policies on households Energy efficiency policies can include minimum energy efficiency indexes (or maximum consumption indexes), comparative labeling (compulsory or voluntary) and endorsement seals. These initiatives have been introduced in the country since 1984, with the establishment of the Brazilian Labeling Programme (PBE), headed by INMETRO, which began to produce comparative labels for equipment's energy performance, providing consumer education and stimulating more efficient products manufacture from industry. In 1993, the PROCEL (for electrical equipment) and CONPET (for products that use derived fuels from oil and natural gas) seals were created to emphasize the most energy-efficient devices. There are complementary actions aimed at reducing energy demand in homes, including performance standards (ABNT NBR N0 15.220 and N0 15.575), labeling standards (PBE Edifica) and endorsement seals (Procel Edifica) for buildings, as well as encouraging the use of alternative energy generation systems in social housing (HIS). It is estimated that the average annual consumption per air conditioner reduced about 15.3% between 2005 and 2022 (-1.0% per year), because of the minimum energy efficiency index, regulations initiated by MME/MCT/MDIC IO n° 364/2007 and revised the IO n° 323/2011 and by the IO n° 2/2018. In the case of refrigerators, it is estimated that the average annual consumption per appliance reduced about 11.5% between 2005 and 2022 (-0.7% per year), because of the minimum energy efficiency index regulations initiated in 2007 by IO MME/MCTI/MDIC n° 362/2007, which was revised by the IO n° 326/2011 and by the IO n° 01/2018. Following on the new policies from Law N0 10.295 of 2001, known as the Energy Efficiency Law, it is important that the regulations about minimum energy efficiency ratings be extended to other household appliances, prioritizing those with the highest average consumption per appliance.

It was estimated that the energy consumption avoided in the country's homes will be 806,000 toe in 2022 using SHS. The exchange from the sun's energy into thermal energy is based on the absorption of solar radiation and its transfer, as heating, for an element that will provide a certain energy service. Solar water heating systems are made up of solar collectors and a thermal storage, where the heated water is stocked. SHS have an extra heating equipment, that can use electricity or gas, and are activated during periods of low solar intensity, such as nights and cloudy days. The collectors and tanks are standardized by the Brazilian Labeling Programme (PBE), coordinated by INMETRO. From the consumer's point of view, the use of SHS can total energy spending. For the electrical sector, their use can reduce consumption on the grid, peak demand in critical periods and the technical losses in the system as well, helping to postpone new investments in generation, transmission and distribution. Finally, from an environmental point of view, the use of SHS can help to reduce GHG emissions. 0% 1% 2% 3% 0 20 40 60 80 100 200520072009201120132015201720192021 m² Installed area (m²) per thousand inhabitants Share of households with SHS (right axis)
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 35 Conditioning air has become more popular due to the increased use of equipment’s by families, as they are able to afford them, replacing fans and air circulators, which are relatively cheaper and use less energy. This may also happen due to the increase of warmer days average occurrence over the years. Energy share evolution of the final consumption in the residential buildings The main final energy use in Brazilian homes is cooking, followed by food preserving and water heating. The reduction in the energy share of food cooking between 2005 and 2022 can be explained by the energy transition process of the most economic disadvantaged families, which have been replacing the consumption of traditional biomass by modern and efficient fuels, as they economically progress. Lighting, on the other hand, has been losing share over time due to the increasingly use of efficient light bulbs, especially compact fluorescent and LED technology. The increase in the electrical and electronic equipment share can be explained by the increase in the families' possessions and resources, which follow a technological and habits transition.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 36 Heating water houses percentage evolution by energy source Electricity is the biggest energy source used by Brazilian households to heat water, because of the electric showers. It is estimated that in 2022 the country has an average of 0.71 electric showers per house and the percentage of households using electricity to heat water reached 87.3% in the same year. In addition, the households with solar thermal energy for water heating reached 3.6% of all heating water households in 2022. There are very warm weather Brazilian regions, such as the North and Northeast. This may contribute to the low percentage of households that heat water for bathing, as illustrated by the Survey of Ownership and Habits of Use of Equipment - PPH 2019 (PROCEL/ELETROBRAS). The EPE calculations, using the data collected in this survey, estimate that around 35% of Brazilian households did not heat water for bathing in the country in 2019. This number of houses is much higher in the North (94%) and Northeast (88%). Figure 19: Evolution of the share of households that heat water by energy source Source: CompiledbyEPE Water gas heaters, which can be tankless or storage tank, are alternatives to electric showers, especially in urban areas with gas distribution grid. It is estimated that around 8.4% of households are using gas to heat water. This equipment is standardized by the Brazilian Labeling Programme (PBE), coordinated by INMETRO. There are also regulations for minimum energy performance standards for gas heaters, which started with the MME/MCT/MDIC Interministerial Ordinance No. 298/2008 and was reviewed in 2011 by the Interministerial Ordinance No. 324. 95% 93% 90% 88% 87% 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 20052010201520202022 ElectricityGasSolarOthers

The use of natural gas is still small (5.7% of national households), basically restricted to urban areas in cities with distribution infrastructure. Figure 20: Percentage evolution of households that cook food by source in relation to the total number of national households Source: Compiled by EPE The electricity use in food cooking has been growing over time, mainly due to the increase in microwave ownership (63% in 2022). With the technology evolution and the cost reduction, people are more likely to buy these type of electrical appliances for domestic use, because it is practical, and brings satisfactory results. It includes microwaves, electric ovens and hobs, sandwich makers, grills, toasters, electric fryers, electric pans, among other devices. The traditional biomass (firewood and charcoal) share for food cooking in the country's houses felt down between 2005 and 2015 because of the economic progress in most of the disadvantaged Brazilian families. However, it had a growth from 2015 to 2018 due to the economic worsening scenario, with a further reduction in the following years until 2022. 0% 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% 200520072009201120132015201720192021 BiomassGLPNatural GasElectricity (electric stove)Electricity (microwave)
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 38 Food preservation is the highest end use consumption per household in the country, because of the refrigerators which are turned on practically in every Brazilian home, 24 hours a day, every day, all year long. It means a highly significant specific consumption. Despite the air conditioners decrease of 0.18 appliances/house in 2022, it has the highest average consumption per appliance, that results in being the ranking second-place among the most electro-intensive appliances in 2022 (around 17% of total residential consumption in the year). Fans and air circulators have slightly more than 1 appliance/household, making them a lower-cost solution for conditioning the air. The number of electric showers felt between 2005 and 2022. In the case of freezers, the reduction is largely the result of families changing their habits in recent decades and no longer replacing equipment, that has reached the end of its lifetime and is being scrapped. The insertion of more efficient equipment, replacing older equipment, tends to reduce the average consumption of the existing stock in the country.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 39 Residencial ODEX ODEX is an index that analyzes the energy efficiency improvements over a period of time. For households, this measure brings the consumption trend of the different end uses (in the case of energy), or the main electrical equipment (in the case of electricity), weighted by their total consumption. Figure 23: Residential ODEX evolution calculated for total energy and electricity Source: Compiled by EPE For electricity, the national stock of equipment decreased in its average specific consumption. This is because of the first equipment purchase or replacement of obsolete or end-of-life appliances by more efficient ones. In other hand, when other energy sources are considered, there is a slowdown in the ODEX decrease since 2014, which can be explained by the slight increase of firewood for cooking use, due to budget restrictions and an increase of the LPG price in household expenses, especially for low-income families. Energy efficiency trends in the Brazilian residential sector between 2005 and 2022. While the ODEX calculated for electricity fell by 15% (0.08% p.a.) between 2005 and 2022, the ODEX for energy fell by 20% (1.1% p.a.). In recent years, the indicator decrease has been higher for electricity, suggesting the importance of this source in the country’s residential energy conservation. 75 80 85 90 95 100 200520062007200820092010201120122013201420152016201720182019202020212022 Energy Electricity Note. The Residential ODEX methodology has been updated to isolate the ownership effect and specific equipment consumption and, consequently, to highlight energy efficiency gains by equipment. The facilities considered in the calculation of the electrical ODEX are light bulbs, fridges, washing machines, TVs, electric showers, air conditioning and fans. In the energy ODEX, in addition to the electrical equipment energy consumption considered, different energy sources consumption are considered for heating water and cooking food.

Figure 25: Electricity consumption evolution and commercial sector area
Source: Compiled by EPE
Analysis: Commercial Sector
In 2022, the commercial sector reached its highest level, both in terms of electricity consumption and area. For the period 2006-
2022, there was an increase in commercial establishments in an annual average rate of 2.8%, while during the same time the sector's
electricity consumption increased by 3.6% per year. ABRAVA's economic bulletin (February 2023) points to a growth in 2022 of 6.9%
for central equipment (tons of refrigeration - TR) in comparison to 2021, largely due to the resumption of services.
In 2022, the services volume (incomings)
increased by 8.3% in comparison to the
previous year, partly due to the resumption
of tourist activities, congresses,
conventions, hotels and restaurants, etc.
The Civil Construction GDP increased by 7%
in 2022 (IBGE), with a positive performance
above Brazil's GDP of 2.9%, contributing to
the expansion of the built-up area and
electricity consumption.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 49 Energy consumption effects sectioning: from 2000 to 2022 the energy consumption in industry raised up 1.7% per year The food and beverage and the pulp and paper industries stand out for their growth over the entire outlook. However, in the first period almost all segments grow, with little structural variation. In the second period, several industries reduce their activity and lose share, especially textiles and other industries, with energy-intensive segments predominating - increasing the national industry intensity. Figure 32: Breakdown of changes in industrial energy consumption Source: Compiled by EPE, from EPE (2023b) and IBGE (2023) The three main effects that compose the industrial consumption variation are: added value (changes in the activity level), the industrial segments relative share (i.e. the structure of industry) and each segment intensity (the ratio between energy consumption and added value for each segment). Between 2000 and 2010 there was a large increase in industrial activity, a moderate change in structure while the intensity effect was low. The industries that most grew up in the period were food and beverages ,mining and pelletizing, and pulp and paper. In the period between 2010 and 2022, there was a reduction in economic activity, but consumption increased due to changes in structure, an increase in the energy-intensive industries participation, with a consequent increase in the industry energy intensity. Each segment’s energy intensity remains relatively stable.

Coal is also losing share due to the steel sector usage reduction. Even though, it is used more in the ferroalloys sector. Bleach (black liquor) is gaining share, in line with the pulp industry, which uses this co-product in its processes. In 2022, the food and beverage, pig iron and steel, and pulp and paper industries were the most representative in terms of energy consumption.

Cement: specific consumption and clinker content The cement industry in Brazil has a modern and efficient industrial park, which is constantly being updated. More than 99% of production is carried out in dry kilns (the most efficient), around 40% of the industrial park is less than 15 years old and more than 70% of its kilns are equipped with 4 to 6-stage preheater towers and pre-calciners (EPE, 2021). Modern grate coolers equip 80% of Brazilian kilns and approximately 50% of raw material mills are vertical, which are considered to have the lowest electricity consumption.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 55 Cement: energy matrix and co-processing The cement industry's energy matrix has changed over time. During the oil crises there was a momentary migration from fuel oil to coal (mineral and vegetable). In the 2000s, the sector switched to imported petroleum coke instead of fuel oil. Currently, petroleum coke is the main source, due to its low price and guaranteed supply. Figure 40: Final energy consumption by source in the cement industry Source: EPE (2023b). Note: "Other" includes natural gas, firewood, diesel oil and LPG The share of waste co-processing is becoming more important, reaching 19% of consumption in 2022. Since the 2000s, a new energy revolution becomes more important: alternative fuels, characterized by the wasting co-processing and the biomass use. Co-processing has several environmental benefits, as it provides an appropriate destination for waste and reduces GHG emissions (since most of this waste has a lower emission factor than traditional fossil fuels). This energy transition has demanded - and will demand even more - investment from the sector in adapting the production process, as well as improvements in monitoring and control (EPE, 2021). 55% 65% 74% 69% 62% 58% 15% 12% 13% 13% 14% 14% 14% 9% 8% 9% 17% 19% 200020052010201520202022 Others* Coal Charcoal Alternative fuels Electricity Fuel oil Petroleum coke
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 56 Pulp and paper: profiling and recycling Pulp production is increasing in a faster pace than paper production, with large pulp-only mills and an increase in exports, because of the great Brazilian product competitiveness. In 2020, domestic pulp production was already double that of paper production. Since pulp production is more energy-intensive than paper production, this affects the evolution of the sector's specific consumption. Figure 41: Pulp/paperproduction ratioin Brazil Source: Compiled by EPE, from Ibá(2023). Figure 42: Paper recycling rates in Brazil and worldwide Source: Compiled by EPE, from ICFPA (2023) e ANAP(2020, 2021) Paper recycling is an important sustainability measurement. Replacing the paper produced from pulp with paper scraps is a circular economy action that avoids energy consumption and other impacts of pulp production. The sector has a positive track record in reverse logistics, having reached the 70% recycling rate milestone in 2020, above the global average of 60%. The recycling rate for packaging is even higher, reaching 80%. However, it is important to know that recycling paper can switch the product characteristics and quality, and it can't always be used for the same application, and it depends on a logistics grid for collecting paper scraps, which goes beyond the confines of the factory.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 57 Pulp and paper: energy matrix and renewability The national pulp and paper sector's energy matrix has a high level of renewability, reaching 88%. The sector uses by-products of the pulp production process, bleach (black liquor) and wood waste, for cogeneration. Natural gas began to be used in the 1980s, and its share, since the 2000s, has been relatively stable at 7%, mainly in boilers. Fuel oil, on the other hand, has significantly reduced its share from 16% in 2000 to 2% today, used to start boilers, in lime kilns and in the fuel oil boilers of a few plants (EPE, 2018).

The electricity consumption of secondary (recycled) aluminum is lower than the primary aluminum, which is electro-intensive. According to the World Economic Forum (2021), the consumption of recycled aluminum is in around 5% of the consumption of primary aluminum. This fact is also supported for Brazil, as pointed out by the EPE (2017) study.

This increase was due to the growth in freight transportation, but also passenger transportation. Particularly noteworthy is the increase in demand for diesel oil and gasoline, encouraged by the increase in consumption of goods, greater mobility of the population, and a rise in agricultural and industrial production. The growth rate recorded was higher than the GDP expansion, especially due to the recovery in population mobility following the end of restrictions imposed during the pandemic. The airline and passenger transport sectors are still below pre-pandemic demand, although they are gradually recovering and with values closer to those of 2019.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 62 Road transport energy consumption evolution Between 2000 and 2022, the passenger demand for transport increased by 2.2% per year, and freight transport grew by 4.8% per year. In 2022 the road transport had recovery up. One highlight was the Otto Cycle demand increase of 6.4%, foremost because of the people individual transport. Another spotlight was the increase in freight transport, particularly because of grain harvests records, but also due to a reduction in unemployment and a consumption increase. The demand fall in hydrous ethanol, due to a lower supply from sugar cane mills, was more than offset by an increase in demand for petrol. It’s important to emphasis the C petrol growth in the road transport matrix, while the price of ethanol and diesel decreased in comparison to 2021. In 2022, CNG showed a demand increase of 9.3 %, with a continuous gain share since 2021, while hydrated ethanol is in decline. In this situation, hydrous ethanol loses share in the energy matrix compared to C petrol, whose demand increased by 2.9%. 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 20002001200220032004200520062007200820092010201120122013201420152016201720182019202020212022 10 6 toe CollectiveTransport Diesel B FreightTransport Diesel B Individual Transport Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Gasoline C HydratedEthanol Diesel B 3.1% a.a.

In addition, the unemployment level, combined with the increase in public transport fares had an impact in transports demand. In this context, a lot of buses, trains, subways and airplanes continued to be less busy than in pre-pandemic times. In the airline sector, international flights are recovering even more slowly, especially due to the increase in ticket prices and the exchange rate.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 66 Freight Transport At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, throughout the first few months of 2020, freight transport, especially by trucks, was impacted. Despite this fact, it quickly recovered, and at the ending the year, it grew 5.8%. Since then, it has been growing substantially. This good performance happened again in 2021, with one of the reasons for it being the demand for consumption goods increasing, driven by restrictions on mobility, and the reduction in money spending on services. In 2022, freight transport again contributed to the diesel oil demand increase, the growth of e-commerce, the transport of goods between factories and distribution centers and between distribution centers and final consumers, as well as the grains transport to ports. Trains demand has also recovered, with new connections increasing the transport of agribusiness products by rail. Bigger investments in infrastructure and the high harvest in 2022 contributed to the percentage increase in activity in this area, which was the highest among the others. Meanwhile, although air transport is recovering to pre-pandemic values, aviation fuel (kerosene) prices increased, affecting the use of this transport way.

In 2022, the demand for trucks remained high, especially due to the advance of new trucks purchase, because of the requirement for engines to comply with the new Proconve P8 regulations from 2023. However, problems with semiconductors made factories to shut down for several months, impairing truck manufacturing. The inclusion of new phases in the Vehicle Emissions Control Programme (Proconve) encouraged the adoption of more efficient engines to fit the new emission limits. In 2022, the energy efficiency of new vehicles evolved, especially semi-light vehicles, which had a greater increase in the fleet share, as well as the medium-sized vehicles. The medium-sized vehicles efficiency was affected by the electric cars models sales, which, although at the beginning, started to expand. Efficiency in the sector increased by 0.7%, showing progress in all categories.

And despite the pandemic, which reduced industrial production and consumption, and, at the beginning of the pandemic, restricted truck drivers' free movement, the demand for road diesel oil fell by 1.0% in 2020, with a growth of 9.3% in 2021. In 2022, it kept recovering, although slower, with an increase of 2.8 %. Since January 2022, the system for marketing biodiesel between producers and distributors began to happen via direct negotiation, ending up the auctions. The biodiesel mandatory percentage blend into diesel oil was 10 % during whole 2022, with a 6.4% falling in biofuel consumption in the previous year.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 69 The transport sector is the country's biggest energy consumer, closely followed by the industrial sector. The main reason for the transport high energy intensity is the transport matrix setting, which is extremely dependent on road transport. Freight transport has increased, with demand for diesel fuel increasing due to the increased use of trucks. Coupled with a post-pandemic growth in individual road transportation by car, there is a transport sector with growing demand, despite of each type advances in the energy efficiency. The individual car transport has increased even more the energy demand of passenger transport. After the end of post-pandemic restrictions, the mobility increasing impacted mainly on individual transport, as the public transport activity is still in a lower level as it was in 2019. The total mobility has also not fully recovered yet, and it can be a reflect of hybrid work, which remains in big cities, as the relatively high unemployment and underemployment rate. Car sales have also become restricted, especially due to logistical issues, which have hampered the production and raised the prices of these assets. Additional remarks on the Transport Sector The main component responsible for the Otto’s cycle fuels demand increasing was Gasoline A. In 2022, there was less availability of hydrous ethanol from sugarcane mills, implying in a drop of this biofuel share from 24% to 21%. This reduction is justified mainly by the increased attractiveness of sugar on the international market and the Brent spot price variation which, among other factors, implied in an increase in the ratio between hydrated ethanol prices and the price of C gasoline (PE/PG). Road freight transport remained dominant in 2022 and had a significant growth. In 2022, rail transport also grew, specially because of flow of the agricultural harvest. However, most of the record harvest was still delivered to consuming centers by truck, as well as other types of cargo, such as liquid bulks, which still mainly use road transport. It's worth noting that more energy-intensive trucks sales were, since heavy trucks accounted for a high proportion of these sales. In 2022, the recovery in diesel oil demand kept working, with an increase of 2.8%. The mandatory blended biodiesel percentage was 10% throughout all the period, and consumption of the biofuel fell in comparison to the previous year. A new marketing system began in January of the same year, via directly deal between producers and distributors. However, the increased efficiency of the truck fleet limited the increase in demand for diesel oil, despite the growth in cargo handling.

Developing Countries
However, Residential Sector’s total energy consumption doesn’t seem to be a very conclusive indicator, because it does not isolate the size of the
population (the populational effect), which is one of the main drivers of energy consumption in the residential sector. Considering the case of Canada
and USA as an example, it is worth noting that Canada has a much lower residential sector’s energy demand than its neighbor, despite of having a
territorial area equivalent to the USA. That can be explained by the fact that USA has a much larger population than Canada.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 77 Residential sector’s consumption patterns of energy services The analysis of aggregated indicators provides an interesting overview of energy consumption in the residential sector. However, it is important to analyze energy consumption in more granular ways in order to understand: ▪which energy services are consumed ▪using which sources and ▪by which consumer socioeconomical profile Main energy services demanded by households Those pieces of information can help to improve the design and implementation of public policies compromised to energy efficiency promotion and energy poverty reduction. Households demand Energy Services, but what about the energy sources?

In the case of Brazil, EPCC for lighting is even lower than the IEA sample average, indicating the likely effectiveness of energy efficiency policies focusing on lamps in Brazil. In Brazil, there are two main policies to promote energy efficiency in lighting in the residential sector: (i) minimum energy performance standards for compact fluorescent lamps (regulated in 2006 and 2010) and incandescent lamps (regulated in 2010), and (ii) replacement of lamps by electricity distribution companies through the Energy Efficiency Programme/ANEEL.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 83 International comparison | EPCC for space cooling Although space cooling is one of the highest energy-consuming services in residential sector, it is not necessarily a popular energy service due to income constrains, structural, climate, or cultural aspects. For example, many countries does not depend on energy consumption for thermal comfort since not facing high temperatures. That explains the reason for many countries in IEA’s sample have low EPCC for space cooling. Among developing countries in IEA sample, Brazil is the country with the highest EPCC for space cooling, presenting a EPCC equivalent to the IEA sample’s average EPCC. It is interesting to highlight that Brazil has a lower EPCC for space cooling than Canada and Albania, both countries with lower average temperatures than those found in Brazil. This may be an indication of energy poverty in Brazil. However, more accurate studies should be developed in order to assess the real potential demand for space cooling based on regional climate data (such as temperatures and number of days with extreme heat and the need for space cooling - cooling degree-days.

For example, Brazil has the 4 th lowest PCC for electrical appliances (including refrigerators). The lower EPCC for electrical appliances in developing countries may be related to the existence of a suppressed demand for other energy services, especially in lower income classes. Therefore, especially in developing countries, it is important to analyze inequality in energy consumption, especially by income classes.

As a result, lower income classes tend to have greater potential for energy efficiency due to the use of conventional energy sources (firewood and charcoal), and a greater suppressed demand for energy services provided by modern energy sources (electricity, solar thermal, LPG and natural gas). This analysis then separates the energy consumption into two groups of energy sources, in order to contribute in a more appropriate way to the design of public policies.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 86 Demand of Modern Sources by energy services and income classes in Brazil Analyzing by energy sources and energy services, it is possible to note that energy per capita consumption (EPCC) tends to increase while income increases. However, the elasticity depends on the energy source and services. Figure S12 Energy Per capita energy consumption by uses and income classes (10 -3 toe). Source: CompiledbyEPE, fromEPE (2023). LPG is the source that presents the most different elasticity (inverse U), especially for cooking. That can be explicated by the fact that the majority of Brazilian household use LPG for cooking purposes. The only exceptions are the lowest income classes, where there is a high penetration of firewood and charcoal for cooking, and the highest income class, where there is a significative access to natural gas and electric stoves.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 87 Box 2. Proposalofanewindicators:ElectricityGiniIndexandModernEnergyGiniIndex The Gini Index shows the relation between the share of a specific group of people or households on the whole population (horizontal axis), and the share of the demand of this very same group (vertical axis). This demand may be related to Electricity consumption (in the case of the Electricity Gini Index) or related to Modern Energy Sources consumption (in the case of Modern Gini Index). This relation is represented by the Lorenz curve, displayed below on the picture: The electricity and modern energy gini indices measure inequality in access to energy services provided respectively by electricity and modern energy sources. These indicators can be used together with the odex and energy per capita consumption (EPCC) to design, monitor and evaluate energy efficiency policies with focus on reduction energy poverty. The Electrical Gini Index is calculated based on the area between the Lorenz curve and a 45 o
curve (area A), that represents the perfect
inequality absence in the electricity consumption
distribution. The larger the area between those
two curves, the larger is the inequality and the
Gini Index.
The index can vary between 0 and 1. When it
equals zero, there is no inequality; what means
that all families would present the same electricity
consumption. On the other hand, if the index is
equal to one, that means the maximum
concentration and, one single family would be
responsible for consuming all the country's
electricity demand.

Electricity Gini Index and Modern Energy Gini Index for Brazil
The Residential Sector's Electricity Gini Index and Modern Energy Gini were calculated for Brazil. From 2005 to 2014, both indicators
decreased, indicating a reduced inequality. However, in 2015, the Gini Indexes changed their courses and started to show upward
trends, indicating a slightly increased demand concentration in the higher-income classes. In 2019, the consumption of modern
energy sources was less concentrated than the electricity consumption in the Brazilian residential sector.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 89 Policies for boosting access to energy efficiency in the use of Modern Sources in Brazil The Brazilian residential sector embraces several pivotal energy efficiency policies. These encompass the Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS), the Brazilian Labeling Programme (PBE), and endorsement seals. The MEPS criteria is applied for equipment listed on Figure S16. Appliances meeting MEPS guidelines are also integrated into the PBE and carry endorsement seals. Those two last initiatives also include other appliances such as microwave ovens, washing machines, televisions, solar water heaters, photovoltaic systems. Moreover, the residential sector benefits from energy efficiency seals specifically designed for buildings. Figure S15: Minimum Energy Performance Standards (MEPS) for home appliances in Brazil. Source: EPE (2023) Brazil has other programmes focused on alleviating inequality in the use of modern energy sources. For example, the Social Electricity Tariff Programme provides discounts on the electricity bill for low-income and other vulnerable families, aiming to reduce the electricity bill burden. Another example is the Minha Casa Minha Vida Programme which subsidizes the acquisition of affordable housing incorporating energy efficiency criteria, such as solar thermal water heating, to help reducing household electricity expenses. Note:The minimum efficiency standards for fridges and freezers were under revision in 2022. Distribution Energy Efficiency Programme Furthermore, Brazil has implemented the Energy Efficiency Programme (PEE) compelling electricity distributors to annually allocate a portion of their net revenue to energy efficiency projects. One key initiative of the programme involves replacing outdated and inefficient electrical appliances in low-income households with new, energy-efficient alternatives. According to ANEEL's 2023 report, the PEE has remarkably invested over R$ 1.9 billion (55%) in 274 energy efficiency projects dedicated to lower-income households between 2009 and 2022. Analyzing a subset of 62 PEE projects aimed at 8,256 lower-income households from 2018 to 2022 (ANEEL, 2023), the outcomes how that energy efficiency investments have contributed to a 6.9% reduction in the monthly electricity consumption of these households. The energy efficiency gains can be translated into significant benefits for these households, such as alleviating the burden of electricity bills within household budgets or granting access to additional energy services. 20062007200820092010201120122013201420152016201720182019202020212022 Bulbs Fridgesand Freezers¹ Air Conditioners Gas Stovesand Ovens Gas Water Heaters Fans

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 91 91 Key policy recommendations to improve energy efficiency in the building sector Regulation Incentives Information ▪Improve building energy performance by implementing Codes and MEPS. Adopting a holistic approach to building energy codes and MEPS should be considered, covering building envelopes, appliances and equipment. Initially, these could be implemented on a voluntary basis to allow enough time for market adaptation before transitioning to mandatory regimes. ▪Develop regulations and legislation for standards and labelling of lighting, appliances and equipment and ensure these are enforced and regularly updated. The standards and labelling should focus on products that will deliver the greatest energy savings and provide the greatest economic and environmental benefits to users and the country. ▪In the case of existing buildings, a combination of policies that improve the minimum codes and the efficiency of buildings through renovation, operation and maintenance best practices is recommended. ▪Regulation and financing to provide access to collective cooling spaces for people without household AC is also critical to protect the most vulnerable. ▪While efficient air conditioners will reduce the impact of cooling on electricity systems, more flexibility is needed to distribute electricity demand intelligently. ▪Governments can promote innovative business models and demand response incentives to encourage the use of digital technologies such as smart thermostats and other improved controls that optimise the load distribution of energy demand for cooling. ▪For existing and new buildings, these policies could be combined with demonstration projects, financial mechanisms, technical capacity building, consumer education, and introducing energy tariff structures that promote efficient energy use. ▪As the first measure to reduce the amount of energy needed for space cooling, proper building design can improve natural ventilation and thermal insulation, reduce air leakage, and improve internal and external shading by incorporating advanced envelope components such as reflective roofs, as well as passive-building design elements, integrated storage and renewables. ▪Greater effort is needed to expand and strengthen MEPS, with targets and requirements that progressively advance air-conditioning energy performance towards the level of best available technology and set a course for continuous improvement.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 93 Access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking in Brazil According to the United Nations, the use of open fires and collected biomass for cooking can cause several health and environmental problems, being associated to nearly 4 million premature deaths every year in the world. Women and children are disproportionally affected, suffering from toxic smoke, time poverty, and consequences of deteriorating environments. Therefore, universal access to clean cooking is part of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the Agenda 2030. However, it is important to highlight that access to clean cooking technologies does not mean necessarily consumption of only clean fuels for cooking. Access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking Like other countries, Brazil is making efforts to improve the access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking. According to IBGE, 96.1% of Brazilian population had access to clean fuels and technologies for cooking in 2015 (IBGE, 2023). According to the World Bank, this value rose to 97% in 2021 (WB, 2023), being 81.5% in rural areas and 99% in urban areas. The improvement in the access to cleaning cooking fuels and technologies was mainly concentrated in rural areas.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 94 Demand of Conventional Sources for cooking by income classes in Brazil In 2022, according to IBGE(2023), 17.1% of Brazilian households declared to still use firewood or charcoal for cooking. Those households can be divided into two subgroups: the ones that consume only firewood for cooking and the ones who consume firewood and other fuels for cooking, mainly LPG. This last group is the most common in Brazil (16.3%). It means that households have access to LPG stoves, but they often find in the collected firewood a solution for cooking towards alleviating LPG cost burden on household budget. Biomass consumption is concentrated in the lowest income classes in Brazil, according to IBGE (2023). The half of the population with the lowest income accounts for approximately 80% of the firewood consumption for cooking in the residential sector. Most of the firewood consumed by families is collected in nature and used in improvised stoves with very low efficiency. Figure S17: Percentual of Households whodeclaredto consume biomass in Brazil.

Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 95 Policies for boosting clean cooking in Brazil The use of open fires and collected biomass for cooking can be strongly related to other socioeconomical vulnerabilities. Therefore, it is important to discuss other public policies focused on eradicating poverty and its consequent challenges. Some Brazilian government programs are designed to alleviate vulnerabilities and facilitate the consumption of clean sources for cooking by low-income households, such as: Brazilian Gas Aid Programme The Gas Aid is a Brazilian Federal Government program whose goal is to reduce the burden on the budget of low-income households. Created in 2001, the programme was incorporated to Bolsa Família in 2003 and relaunched separately in 2021 during COVID-19 pandemic crisis. In 2023, the Gas Aid was boosted and, since then, the selected households has received every two months the amount equivalent to one LPG cylinder. The Gas Aid can be combined with other social programs, such as the Bolsa Família Programme. In August 2023, more than 5.5 million families received the Gas Aid, whose value was R$108 per family in the respective month. BolsaFamíliaProgramme Bolsa Família is an income transfer programme created by the Brazilian Federal Government in 2003 and internationally recognized for having saved millions of families from hunger. Its benefit is designed to be proportional to family size and characteristics to guarantee basic income for families in vulnerability. From 2020 to 2022, because of COVID-19 pandemic, the Emergency Aid was granted to the families. In 2023, the programme is expected to benefit 21.2 million families. In June, the average value of the Bolsa Família benefit was R$ 705.40. Note:Through the CadÚnico (government's Single Registry), Brazilian government seeks to integrate public policies, strengthening access to health, education and social assistance. To be entitled to Bolsa Família Programme, families must be registered in CadÚnico and have a monthly per capita income of up to R$218. To be entitled to Gas Aid Program, families, in addition to being registered in CadÚnico, must have a per capita income of up to half the minimum wage and be selected by the prioritization criteria defined by the Ministry of Development and Social Assistance, Family and Fight Against Hunger. In 2023, the minimum wage was R$1302.
Atlas of Energy Efficiency –Brazil | 2023 Page | 96 96 Key policy recommendations to improve clean cooking in households Regulation Incentives Information ▪Design a high-level political vision, ideally with cross-ministry support, with clear targets, a determined implementation plan, effective subsidies, and international funds distribution. ▪Establishing clear regulatory oversight through agencies can help track the domestic stove market, ensure minimum standard requirements and provide support only to approved ones. ▪Design training programmes and educational strategies that account for local traditions while addressing barriers to adoption rooted in traditional cooking practices. ▪Programmes should include training salespeople and safety technicians, which can make the difference between lasting adoption or stoves going unused. ▪Deliver strategic guidance and support for reskilling those individuals employed in the inefficient cooking sector to access long-term employment opportunities (including redeployment in the clean cooking industry). ▪Programmes must consider societal perceptions of gender, customs, land rights and wildlife protection, as well as different ethnic communities within the same country. ▪Integrate clean cooking with electricity access efforts and make sure these programmes define outcomes for gender equality, health standards, forestry/agricultural practices, including metrics to track progress against these outcomes. ▪Track the progress on clean cooking deployment and evolving technology costs and make this publicly available. This will support a more dynamic and successful private sector participation. ▪Design and implement incentives, promote appropriate business models and cover a cookstove's upfront costs to encourage uptake, and create a competitive ecosystem for private sector actors. ▪Reducing or scrapping tariffs and duties on imported cookstove components to encourage further market participation. ▪Design well-designed cross-subsidisation between low-income and high-income consumers, combined with end-user financing schemes.
