Abstract: The objective of this paper is to analyze the expected changes in the energy use composition in Brazil in a context of global climate changes. A trend scenario for the period 2008-2035 is presented, in which a global economic scenario drives the Brazilian economic scenario which, by its turn, drives the 27 states’ economic scenarios. A multiregional CGE model is computed, leading to the analysis of sectoral and regional changes. Some adaptation is simulated which led to a change in the energy use composition. The most competitive sectors and regions are pointed out.
