The common problem in the public infrastructure of Brazil is that its spending on this issue is decreasing since 1980s. The population continued to experience occasional brown-outs and also its power generating capacity confronts historical problem from 1960-1980 level of 10% growth to only 3% for today. This would serve as opportunity for the energy producer as long as it surpasses political and legal restrictions. In contrast, the electricity rationing in Australia is generally better than Brazil. Although there are rural problems, the current government has identified programs to mitigate the difficulty. Another issue is the ageing of the public infrastructure in Australia which may call the capabilities of the energy firms if ever government corporations are not available.
