Abstract: The main objective of this work is to discuss the use of wind energy, that is, energy obtained through the force of winds in Brazil, in a broad comparison with various electric power sources available today. A panorama of locations that best utilize this entirely renewable resource will be presented, as well as the advantages of its application in our country through a theoretical analysis and a case study. Recent documents indicate that investment in this energy sector has been intensifying, especially regarding its infrastructure and installation and generation capacity. Considering this, it is essential to understand not only the advances that enable the expansion of this electricity energy model but also the challenges faced in its operation. The relevance of the topic in the national market is justified by the current pursuit of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and the interest in exploring Brazil's potential for diversifying the electrical matrix and secure, renewable sources.
