 Brazil is known worldwide for its ample share of renewable sources in its energy production.&nbsp; According to the Brazilian energy balance, 32.9% of the domestic energy supply in 2015 was from renewable sources, such as hydropower, sugar cane products and wind (EPE, 2016). If we consider only the electricity supply, the numbers are even more positive. Renewable sources represent 75.51% of the total, of which 64% are hydro; 8%, biomass; 3.5% wind and 0.01%, solar.<ref name="EPE.

-[[Energy Auctions in Brazil|Energy auctions]] are one of the main instruments adopted by Brazilian federal government to ensure that the pre-defined quality standards are met by the energy services along with lowest prices.&nbsp; Exclusive auctions, as wind or solar, have been an important mechanism to increase the participation of some sources in the national energy mix.

 In 2009 was realized the first [[Energy Auctions in Brazil|exclusive wind power]] auction. Since then, a total of 430 wind parks (10.74 GW) had been installed by the end of 2016. The first solar power auction was realized in 2014 and another two in 2015. Together, they commissioned 94 plants (3,049 GW).&nbsp; Two new auctions are planned in December 2017 and another in April 2018, all including wind and solar PV as possible energy sources. &nbsp;
