This report presents the work carried out under Axis 3 of the Energy Big Push (EBP) Brazil project, which was aimed at identifying strategic guidelines and key policy instruments to accelerate investments in clean energy innovation in Brazil. The report describes the survey and analysis of the national regulatory and policy framework for energy innovation in Brazil, reviews the experiences of leading countries in clean energy investments with a focus on innovation and the outlines strategic actions lines and key incentive mechanisms for Brazil. The present report contributes to a better understanding of the policy mechanisms that can help put in motion a set of complementary and coordinated investments, with a focus on innovation, for the construction of a more sustainable, resilient and low-carbon energy matrix and, at the same time, for the promotion of a more inclusive, efficient and competitive economy. The main premise of EBP Axis 3 is that the development of energy technology occurs within the innovation system, which is an intricate, complex and dynamic environment in which multiple incentive mechanisms and diverse stakeholders play a role. In this context, the present work emphasizes the importance of policy coordination to accelerate clean energy innovation.
