Energias renováveis: considerações sobre energia eólica, vantagens e desvantagens, e participação na matriz energética brasileira até 2022.

Abstract

The world electricity matrix, as well as that of most of the countries that compose it, is still predominantly based on the use of fossil fuels. Currently, there is an increasing search for changes in energy matrices in order to produce and consume sources called clean energy, that is, from renewable sources and without the emission of pollutants or impacts to the environment, which differ from fossil fuels mainly in their diversity, abundance and potential for use anywhere on the planet. Renewable energies do not emit greenhouse gases in power generation processes, making it a cleaner and more viable solution to avoid environmental degradation. In this context, one of the options with the highest growth rate in its exploration and production is wind energy, that is, that generated by the force of the winds and which in the last twenty years has increased participation in the Brazilian energy matrix. This work uses bibliographic research approaching the subject through the collection of information from materials from different authors and publications from institutions, analyzing the theme from different points of view. Keywords: Energy sources. clean energy. Renewable energy. Wind energy in Brazil
