This paper is intended to be an evaluation of the use of Wind Power to reduce Carbon Dioxide emissions (C02) in Brazil. In the first part of the paper, the mean aspects of Wind Power Energy and the importance of clean energy in the current world received an introductory description. Next, the mean emission assessment method was described, then, the contribution, in terms of emissions of C02, of several energy sources was depicted in terms of tons per MW produced. It was done a comparative of the integration of Wind Parks in grids with different energy matrices (hydro, coal and etc.), a study comparing the several energy sources both in Brazil and the world. And finally, it was done an approach about the planning and future opportunities for Brazilian energetic panorama, emphasizing the technical feasibility and the stimulus of the public policies.
