HIGHLIGHTS IN BRAZIL

In its ten years Energy Development Plan, Brazil keeps on investing in power capacities (+50% planned in 2020), mainly in hydro and wind, to support a strong economic growth. Besides, new large oil discoveries were recently made in the offshore pre-salt region, especially in the Campos Basin.

Brazil's 6.6% increase in primary energy production pushed Latin America's overall growth rate up by 2%. The country was also the key driver in imports of refined oil products (Brazilian imports shoot up 70%) resulting in a deeper trade deficit for the whole region. At the end of the year, Latin America accounted for 13% of the overall increase in consumption of refined oil products.
