INFRAESTRUTURA DE RECARGA PARA VEÍCULOS ELÉTRICOS NO BRASIL: UM ESTUDO DO ESTADO DE GOIÁS

Abstract

Electric mobility emerges as a sustainable alternative to combustion vehicles, reducing emissions and environmental impacts. In Brazil, the electric vehicle (EV) sector faces challenges, particularly in charging infrastructure, which is crucial in a country with vast distances and unevenly distributed infrastructure. This study analyzes Brazil’s EV charging infrastructure, focusing on public policies, current distribution, and expansion in Goiás. The research mapped the existing infrastructure using scientific, technical, and official data, highlighting the need for broader public policies. Programs like Rota 2030 and ANEEL Resolution 819/2018 encourage the EV market, but the infrastructure remains concentrated in major urban centers. Expanding subsidies and public-private partnerships (PPPs) is essential to develop charging points along highways and in strategic locations. In Goiás, of the 27 charging stations, most are in Goiânia, with limited expansion outside major centers. Creating intermunicipal corridors and providing incentives for ultra-fast chargers are crucial to democratizing electric mobility, leveraging the country’s renewable energy matrix, and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
