| Sumario: | As an attempt to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the year 2005 entered into force the Kyoto Protocol. This agreement aims to reduce GHGs from flexibility mechanisms, among them, the one that is applied to developing countries such as Brazil, the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM). Given the current importance of the theme climate change and uncertainty to which it refers, this agreement was extended for 7 years (2013-2017). Brazil is among the countries with the largest number of CDM projects registered in the first period of the Protocol. Thus, this paper aims to conduct a comparative analysis of the renewable energy projects located in Brazil, recorded in the first and second period of the Kyoto Protocol, which was developed according to the methodology ACM0002. Available data were used to conduct the study in the United Nations Framework Convention Climate Changes (UNFCCC) and the Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation (MCTI) sites, entities responsible for the registration and approval of projects, respectively, in addition to research articles and books. From this, it was observed that the first year of the second period of global climate agreement (2013) obtained eight records in the UNFCCC where all projects present period of sale of renewable carbon credit. Following what happened in the first period of the agreement in 2013 most registered projects used as an energy source to power the existing winds, particularly in the state of Rio Grande do Norte.Keywords: Clean Development Mechanisms, Kyoto Protocol, Renewable Energy. |
