The country’s experience in managing renewable resources in its energy mix can contribute greatly to IEA discussions on a broadened concept 20 of energy security. Brazil has also pioneered the use of auctions for long-term contracts for renewable energy, a model that is now successfully applied as best-practice world-wide. 25 Brazil and the IEA plan to work jointly across a wide range of energy-related activities. These include implemention of The Biofuture Platform, which aims to promote international coordination on advanced low carbon fuels. The IEA will also support the 30 development of Brazil’s ten-year energy efficiency plan and co-host an energy efficiency training event in Brazil to share regional and global experiences. “Brazil’s experience shows that policies do matter,” said Dr Fatih Birol, the IEA’s Executive 35 Director. “Its determined and ambitious long-term energy policies, developing deep-water oil resources and expanding biofuels output, set an example to countries around the world. As a result, our latest data shows that Brazil will become a net oil exporter this 40 year, the first major consumer in recent history to ever achieve such a turnaround.” Dr Birol also congratulated Brazil for its recent successful deepwater bid round. After depending on oil imports since IEA records began in the 1970s, the 45 IEA now finds that Brazil will become a net exporter this year, and exporting nearly one million barrels of oil per day to world markets by 2022. This is the result of a 50% increase in oil production in the past decade thanks to a successful push into deep-water 50 production, and a biofuels programme that has helped keep domestic oil-demand growth under control. With Brazil, the IEA family now accounts for over 70% of the world’s total energy consumption, compared with less than 40% just two years ago. The 55 seven IEA Association countries are Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Morocco, Singapore and Thailand. The agreement will allow the IEA to benefit from Brazil’s unique experience, which has enabled it to develop one of the cleanest energy mixes in the world. 60 Thanks to its expertise in global energy market and policy analysis, the IEA can support Brazil’s efforts and collaborate in its energy transition.
