Tóm tắt

The object of this work is to discuss the challenges for the implementation of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) in Brazil. The socio-technical framework is employed as a methodological tool to analyse these challenges, considering the feasibility of new technologies in the Brazilian mitigation mix. In the specific case of implementing CCS technologies in Brazil as a mechanism to contribute to the issues related to climate change, the uncertainties where analysed to raise questions and comprehension about how to follow through the energy transition. To support the main discussion of this article, the case of the Research Centre for Gas Innovation will be explored to better understand the gaps in Brazil that can be tackled by an integrated approach. To comprehend the implementation of new technologies, the analysis of the social and historic context is essential when correlated to national and transnational topics such as energy transition, climate change and social behaviour. Thus, Brazil has been investing in a low carbon economy searching a sustainable future, but still needs to do more about social, environmental, effective public and economic policies alongside with technical developments.
