Ethanol and cane bagasse made up 41.1% of renewable energies, followed by power from hydroelectric plants (27.5%), timber and charcoal (19.9%), biodiesel (2,5%) and wind energy (1.5%). The numbers are from the 2016 overview <em>Resenha Energ&eacute;tica Brasileira <\/em>released this Monday (6) by the Brazilian Ministry of Mines and Energy. <\/p>\n<p>Brazil&rsquo;s renewable energy usage rate exceeds that of developed countries, whose average is 9.4%. &ldquo;The relevance of hydropower and biomass in the Brazilian energy matrix enable way lower CO2 emission levels than the world&rsquo;s and developed countries&rsquo; averages,&rdquo; the report reads. CO2 emissions shrank by 4.6% in Brazil last year as a result of a 7.2% drop in consumption of oil products. <\/p>\n<p><strong>*Translated by Gabriel Pomerancblum<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The share of this type of power source in the overall energy matrix went from 39.4% in 2014 to 41.2% last year, the Ministry of Mines and Energy reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2315,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[91],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-54273","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-economy"},"wps_subtitle":"The share of this type of power source in the overall energy matrix went from 39.4% in 2014 to 41.2% last year, the Ministry of Mines and Energy reported.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54273","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2315"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54273"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54273\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54273"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54273"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54273"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
