Beschreibung
This volume discusses the political economy of energy transition in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) region. Viewed through the lens of emerging progressive movements with energy at the forefront, the book explores how so-called Energia Progresiva can act as a driving force to address climate challenges, foster sustainable development, and ease the transition to a knowledge-based economy, setting the course for the future of Latin America and the Caribbean. Analyzing diverse contexts and realities faced by different countries in the region, it examines potential challenges and obstacles, opportunities, and policy implications.
Chapters in the volume are organized around three unifying themes. Chapters in the first section provide an intertemporal analysis of energy transition in selected countries in the LAC region. Chapters in the second section discuss the paradoxical relationship between regional energy insecurity and natural resource abundance. The final section looks toward the future and the expected evolution of the region's energy industry.
This volume will be of interest to researchers and students of the Latin America and Caribbean energy landscape as well as development practitioners and business consultants working on energy and infrastructure projects in the region.
