Overview

  • The Mines and Energy, Environment, Finance and Casa Civil ministries must draft guidelines and submit a priority proposal to the CNPE.
  • The plan must include financing mechanisms, including a Transition Fund financed by a share of oil and gas revenues.
  • Environment Minister Marina Silva welcomed the move as leadership by example, while NGOs criticized perceived contradictions tied to newly approved exploration on the Equatorial Margin.
  • Petrobras cut its 2026–2030 energy-transition investment plan by about 20% after COP30, intensifying scrutiny of the government's strategy.
  • Brazil retains the COP30 presidency through November 2026, and Ambassador André Corrêa do Lago pledged to keep advancing a global roadmap as domestic ministries work through internal differences.
