Abstract:
The author studied in detail the aspects of cooperation between Russia and Brazil in the field of green energy. In this context, Russia and Brazil, as countries with vast territories and rich natural resources, have a special potential for developing the green energy sector both within the framework of each country's energy policy separately and in bilateral cooperation. Both countries are expanding the possibilities of using various types of renewable energy sources, and therefore cooperation between these two states can become an important factor in promoting this direction in global realities. The countries are actively strengthening cooperation within the framework of the BRICS, because one of the relevant topics on the agenda of the association is precisely cooperation in the field of green energy and the economy. The partnership between the two countries not only contributes to achieving carbon neutrality, but also creates favorable conditions for further economic growth. The main research method is system analysis, which reveals the components of the countries' cooperation policies in the field of green energy, and the green energy of Russia and Brazil are considered separately. A geo-economic approach was also used to identify the dependencies of the development of low-carbon markets in Russia and Brazil on the common agenda of such an association as the BRICS. The scientific novelty of the study lies in an extensive analysis of cooperation between the Russian Federation and Brazil in the field of green initiatives, including the creation of low-carbon markets, the use of renewable energy sources, as well as the promotion of climate and carbon-neutral initiatives of the two countries through the BRICS. The article examines this aspect of cooperation between the two countries, since when analyzing energy cooperation between Russia and Brazil, researchers more often focus on carbon energy resources. The two countries are strengthening cooperation in the field of green innovation, creating joint projects in the field of nuclear and hydrogen energy and contributing to the sustainable development of the two countries. The countries are actively strengthening cooperation within the framework of the BRICS, because one of the relevant topics on the agenda of the association is precisely cooperation in the field of green energy and the economy. The partnership between the two countries not only contributes to achieving carbon neutrality, but also creates favorable conditions for further economic growth.
