O potencial das energias renováveis e sua contribuição para o crescimento econômico no estado do Piauí: uma abordagem administrativa

Abstract

This study analyzes the potential for investment in renewable energy in the State of Piauí, focusing on wind, solar, biomass and green hydrogen. To this end, an exploratory approach was adopted, combining bibliographical review and field research, through interviews with a FAPEPI specialist. The work seeks to identify opportunities and challenges for the expansion of these energy sources and their impact on local economic development. The application of the BCG matrix made it possible to classify the different technologies and highlight the great potential of solar energy in the state. The results indicate that Piauí has favorable conditions to become a renewable energy production hub, generating jobs, attracting investments and contributing to the diversification of the Brazilian energy matrix. However, challenges such as the need for infrastructure and the creation of public policies that avoid the alienation of economic discourses must be expressed in this transition.
