Outlook 2025: The role of biofuels in global renewable energy investments

Bioenergy will be a key part of the energy transition as the world decarbonises, and Brazil is set to be a major player in the sector

The world is facing climate change driven by global warming, primarily caused by greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In response, decarbonisation goals have been established to mitigate the impact on society and the economy, leading to structural changes in energy generation and production methods. The Paris Agreement, signed during the 21st Conference of the Parties (COP21), created a framework for this transformation. The agreement sets out measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, aiming to strengthen global responses to climate change and enhance nations’ capacities to manage environmental impacts. Governments committed to keeping global temperature increases well below 2C above pre-indus
