In a recent breakthrough for industrial decarbonisation in the Global South, Brazil has secured USD 250 million in international climate financing to steer its transition to low-carbon manufacturing for five major focus sectors. The announcement, which was made by the Climate Investment Funds (CIF) under its Clean Technology Fund, anoints Brazil as a frontrunner among emerging economies in charting a sustainable path for hard-to-abate sectors such as aluminium, cement, steel, chemicals, and fertilisers.

The funding will attract the formulation of a comprehensive investment plan led by Brazil’s Ministry of Development, Industry, Trade and Services (MDIC). The plan will map out sector-specific interventions, financing instruments, and policy measures to decarbonise industrial production while crowding in private capital. According to CIF, Brazil ranked at the top among 26 competing nations in technical readiness and policy coherence.

Brazil’s commitment aligns squarely with its national industrial policy framework, ‘Nova Indústria Brasil’, launched in early 2024. It integrates energy transition and circular economy as two of its six central pillars. Mission 5 of the policy explicitly targets industrial decarbonisation.
