Latin America

Latin America is a region with great potential for renewable energy development, although it is important to consider that the countries show varying degrees of progress. In this context, there is significant potential for the development of South-South cooperation to address growing energy demand and the need to propose an energy transition that promotes more sustainable modes of production and consumption.

Latin American countries have developed electricity sectors that have benefited from major investment programmes in the past. It is a region that also has mature institutional, legislative and regulatory frameworks and capacities, in quantity and quality, for the design and implementation of public policies and their subsequent administration.

Goal:

"The aim is to strengthen the institutional, legal, and regulatory frameworks as well as the instruments and capacities that promote energy efficiency."
