About this book
The book is a study of the cooperation of Brazil and India on renewable energy. It is based on a research project on the energy sector of both the countries. It discusses the agreements in the energy sector between the two countries and the renewable energy policies developed in four decades. A scientific and technological mapping, a brief study of competitiveness and a primary research were carried out in order to find out the weaknesses and the opportunities for cooperation in renewable energies.
This Publication will undoubtedly provoke the reader to reflect on the importance of cooperation given the growing protectionism not only in terms of energy security, but also in terms of investments in new technologies considering energy transition scenario. For Brazil and India, intensifying the dialogue is more than a strategy of visibility and the search for greater space in worldwide geopolitics.
Reviews
--Suresh Reddy, Indian Ambassador in Brazil.
"Maria Cândida wrote an important book for the Brazil-India bilateral relations, with an innovative approach in the area of energy cooperation, taking into account the sustainable development goals of the United Nations, especially the one related to the access to affordable and reliable energy for all.”
--Tovar da Silva Nunes, former Ambassador of Brazil to India - 2015/2018
"The lack of a robust relationship between Brazil and India is one of the most glaring puzzles of our times. The complementarity of their economies and the similarity ofper capita incomes represent a wealth of possibilities for the exchange of knowledge and policy experiences. This book offers insightful policy recommendations on how to solve this puzzle in a very promising and pressing area: renewable energy. A must read for policymakers."
--Mauricio Moreira, Chief Economist of IDB’s Integration and Trade Sector
