E4 Country Profile: Energy Efficiency in Brazil
…CO2 emissions to current levels by 2040 even while GDP continues to rise. The opportunities to increase energy efficiency based on the Efficient World Scenario are:In transport, where the potential for energy savings is highest, Brazil could attain these energy savings by expanding fuel efficiency. Currently, the average fuel efficiency of passenger vehicles is nearly 24% lower in Brazil than in the European Union and fuel efficiency standards for passenger cars or trucks have yet to be implemented.In the industrial sector, measures aimed at increasing the adoption of energy management systems, which are key to unlocking gains acros...

Fuel economy in Brazil
…LDVs by 12% from 2012 levels by 2017. In 2018, “Rota 2030” was introduced and established mandatory requirements for adhesion to Vehicle Labelling Program (PBEV), and a commitment to achieve minimum vehicle energy efficiency and safety levels. Starting in 2022, an 11% improvement target in fuel consumption over 2017 levels is set for new LDVs.Since 1975, the Brazilian government has promoted biofuels. In 2005, Biodiesel in the Brazilian Energy Mix was passed, which mandated minimum requirements for blending biodiesel with petroleum-derived diesel. Increasing blending ratios have been mandated in Brazil, and a 2018 resolution set blending ratios at…

Oil Market Report - December 2017
…demand, inventories, prices and refining activity, as well as oil trade for IEA and selected non-IEA countries. Highlights Our forecast for global demand growth remains unchanged at 1.5 mb/d in 2017 (or 1.6%) and 1.3 mb/d in 2018 (or 1.3%). Revisions have been made to data for Nigeria, Germany and Iraq. The baseline for oil demand has been raised by roughly 0.2 mb/d.Global oil supply rose 0.2 mb/d in November to 97.8 mb/d, the highest in a year, on the back of rising US production. Output was nonetheless down 1.1 mb…

Iraq Energy Outlook 2012
…increase its oil production vastly. Contracts are already in place.Will Iraq’s ambitions be realised? And what would the implications be for Iraq’s economy and for world oil markets? The obstacles are formidable: political, logistical, legal, regulatory, financial, lack of security and sufficient skilled labour. One example: in 2011 grid electricity could meet only 55% of demand. The IEA has studied these issues with the support and close co-operation of the government of Iraq and many other leading officials, commentators, industry representatives and international experts. This special report, in the World Energy Outlook series, presents the findings.
