Regional Considerations

Latin America is both the world's second largest consumer of energy and one of the most energy-efficient continents. With challenges of growing electricity demand and dependence on imported fuels, national policies are moving towards creating a coherent approach to energy security.

Latin America has become the global leader in new and renewable forms of energy, the development of low-carbon technologies, and demand management, working towards lower environmental impact. In Brazil, for example, renewable sources of energy represent more than 85% of the internal energy produced and utilized in the country.
