In Brazil, incentives and government assistance are available in various configurations, with programmes administered at both the federal and sub-federal levels. The scope of incentive programmes may be regional, sectoral or outcome-specific (e.g. fostering research). Most initiatives seek to promote entrepreneurship, technological and infrastructure upgrades, innovation, exports (Section 3.2.4), energy efficiency, and regional development. Specific federal programmes are in place for the automotive, information technology, aeronautics, and petroleum industries (Section 4). The range of support measures includes: targeted long-term loans ; tax incentives; non-repayable financial contributions; equity financing; accelerated depreciation; guarantees; grants; advisory services; and credit insurance.

Brazil, a net exporter of crude oil with one of the greenest energy matrixes in the world, remains nearly self-sufficient in primary energy production. Its Ten-Year Plan for Energy Expansion 2024, inter alia, aims at raising the share of renewable sources in the energy matrixes. (...) Biofuel production, an activity subject to cross-subsidization elements, continued to be assisted, inter alia, through: support to sugarcane production and fuel-flex cars; lending incentives to expand the industrial capacity for sugar and ethanol production; and, increased mandatory blending ratios for both gasoline and diesel. The state-owned ELETROBRAS continues to play a major role in the electricity sector. Since 2015, a tariff flag system allowing the monthly pass through of the extra costs of generating thermal energy to consumers has been applied. Electricity tariffs, set by the regulator ANEEL, continue to ensure cross-subsidization among different consumer categories. In addition, the tax burden on end-user electricity tariffs remains significant and differs greatly across consumer groups.
