Abstract

Highlights: [•] We assess future paths of carbon capture and storage in power generation in Brazil. [•] We assess different carbon taxes in integrated optimization energy planning model. [•] After 2035 the energy system changes deeply with hydropower potential depletion. [•] Coal-fired plants equipped with post-combustion CCS acquire importance after 2035. [•] After 2040, the main choice is IGCC plants equipped with selexol CCS. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
