Sumario:International cooperation is an efficient way to achieve development, but it requires that countries adopt clear policies and long-term strategies. Brazil and India are embedded in the global economy as developing countries, viewing South-South cooperation both in terms of national power and sustainability. The objective of this paper is to discuss cooperation for development in the renewable energy field between Brazil and India, addressing, as a very innovative theme, their respective backgrounds, similarities and political approaches to international cooperation. The methodology was founded on literature review. Based on the analysis of actions and policies established over the years, South-South cooperation only increased in relevance during the last two decades. Nevertheless, one of the contributions of this paper shows it can be promoted not only through investments in renewable energy, but also through the political abilities of these two countries under study to share scientific and technological expertise and to build a common agenda for cooperation in the area.
