Over 80% of Brazil’s electricity is generated from renewable resources, primarily hydropower. It is also a global leader in biofuels and has major offshore oil reserves. Oil production in 2023 averaged 3.4 million barrels per day. Brazil has established its Energy Transition Acceleration Program, however, despite its abundant irradiance, it does not indicate it is pursuing production of hydrogen by electrolysis of seawater.

White hydrogen has been found in the São Francisco Basin.
