Power plants, including wind energy plants, are included in the category of enterprises that have to undergo an environmental licensing process. Law No. 6938 / 1981, which provides the National Policy on Environment (AMPP), establishes standards and sets criteria for the licensing of actual or potentially polluting activities. With regard to grid connection, the concessionaire or the ONS has to offer an entry point to the distribution or transmission network at a convenient knot for the wind park; the wind park owner has to pay for the cable from the park to the entry point (shallow connection costs).

 The North-eastern and the Southern regions have the highest potential in the country and most of the projects that are already implemented are located in these two regions. The following table presents a list of all existing wind farms with a total installed capacity of 414 MW. Almost 250 MW are installed in the Northeast, where 25 wind parks are located. 7 wind farms, totalling 167 MW, are located in the South and one 1 MW is installed in the Southeast. According to Aneel<ref>Aneel, BIG (Generation Information Data Base) [[http://www.aneel.gov.br/aplicacoes/capacidadebrasil/capacidadebrasil.asp]]</ref>, at the time of writing 13 new wind plants are being constructed.

 The Wind energy industry is already established in the country. The company Wobben Windpower produces, installs and maintains high quality wind turbines. Wobben Windpower is a subsidiary of Enercon GmbH, a world leader in wind energy technology. Therefore, many experts have stated that there is actually no need for importing equipment; however, importation would certainly increase competition. On the other hand, technical experts and skilled workers are still scarce and it is foreseen that the need for maintenance experts will increase with the last execution of PROINFA installations. In this context, the GTZ Energy Programme for Brazil is about to set up an operation and maintenance education and training programme. The Brazilian Development Bank (BNDES) has specific financing programmes for the development of wind farms and has already financed some of them, like those situated in Osório-RS. Except the well-known international financing organizations, there is no real alternative to BNDES.

 wind potential is estimated to be 143 GW<ref>Conditions: 50 m height, average wind speed of at least 7 m/s. Brazilian Wind Energy Centre (CBEE) [[http://www.eolica.com.br/home/pt/index.php]]</ref>. 1.4 GW have already been contracted under the Programme for Promotion of Alternative Electricity Sources (PROINFA). However, by August 2009 only 414 MW had actually been installed.<ref>Aneel, BIG (Generation Information Data Base) [[http://www.aneel.gov.br/aplicacoes/capacidadebrasil/capacidadebrasil.asp]]</ref> The Brazilian Wind Energy Centre published in 2001 a Brazilian Wind Atlas. It was used by the National Energy Plan for 2030 (PNE 2030) in its studies on wind energy<ref>http://www.cresesb.cepel.br</ref>. The atlas provides information on the wind energy conditions at 50 m height. It covers all areas with wind speeds above 7 m / s. These values are theoretical. For example, the North-eastern potential estimated at 75 GW in the PNE 2030 could be as low as 12 GW according to other credible studies.
