In India, BioEnergy Times reported that Brazil’s National Council for Energy Policy (CNPE) published a resolution fixing annual mandatory targets to cut greenhouse gas emissions from fuel sales for the period between 2026 and 2035.
The move reinforces RenovaBio, the country’s National Biofuels Policy, as a key pillar of Brazil’s energy transition, according to the report.
Under the resolution, the fuel sector will follow a defined decarbonization path over the next decade, with the carbon intensity of the fuel mix expected to fall by 11.8% by 2035 compared with 2018 levels.
Mines and Energy Minister Alexandre Silveira said the policy underlines the strategic importance of biofuels in Brazil’s energy planning. He said the long-term targets are aimed at expanding the role of biofuels, encouraging investment, and ensuring that the energy transition delivers economic growth while remaining stable and competitive.
