Table 2.

Energy demand in 2050 assumed in PyPSA-Brazil.

Demand type Input scenario Value (TWh)
Kerosene ANAC “with mitigation” 157.0
Electricity49 COPPE2Deg2030 779.4
COPPEBAU 748.1
COPPElowBECCS 1167.8
PNE2050ECS 885.3
PNE2050SS 620.8
Electricity import/exporta Import/export from neighbouring country 1.87
Maximum total demandb 1321.93

aThe value represents electricity import/export from neighbouring countries. Positive values indicate Brazil importing energy, while negative values indicate Brazil exporting energy. The assumption is based on the electricity trade patterns observed in the base year 2019.

bThe value is calculated as the sum of kerosene demand and electricity demand of COPPElowBECCS, subtracting electricity imports/exports.
