Latin America Energy Week set to discuss the future of energy with the most important leaders in the region
With
the motto "Shaping the Future of Energy", the event's mission is to
connect energy companies, market leaders, government representatives and civil
associations so that these important forces can, together, address regional
challenges and opportunities on the journey towards energy transformation and
decarbonization.
Over nine panels, distinguished national and international guests will address topics involving co-creation in the sustainable solutions development for energy supply, the growing need to integrate the existing infrastructure with the most current systems, as well as scenarios for structuring holistic and competitive financing models. Major innovations that are emerging as bets on the climate change challenge, such as the large-scale production of green hydrogen and digitalization technologies, will also play an important role in the debates that will be conducted at the conference.
“Establish
a regional discussion platform such as Latin America Energy Week is essential
to foster innovative, decarbonized and competitive solutions that will contribute
to pave the way for a bright energy future in Latin America and Caribbean. This
