Green hydrogen is energy produced through the electrolysis of water using renewable electricity. This process generates hydrogen and oxygen without emitting greenhouse gases. South America is emerging as a potential global leader in the green hydrogen economy. The region has abundant renewable energy resources including solar and wind. South American countries are investing in renewable […]

There are several developing hybrid wind projects in South America aiming to diversify the energy mix. These projects combine wind power and other energy sources like solar and hydropower. They create a reliable and more efficient energy systems and improves grid stability. Hybrid wind energy projects provide an opportunity for South America to enhance its

Concentrated solar power (CSP) technology harnesses sunlight to generate electricity. This works by utilizing mirrors or lenses to focus vast amounts of sunlight onto a small region. The concentrated energy is later used to heat a fluid, which powers a turbine connected to a generator. It offers the benefit of thermal energy storage, which enables power

The global COVID-19 outbreak caused disruptions to the energy sector and supply lines. The move opens up some options for South America. The region is on track to transition to a cleaner, low-carbon future. Reshoring supply chains offers an opportunity for firms trying to improve their operations. They capitalize on the region’s renewable energy resources,

Hydropower in South America has great potential since it is abundant in water resources. South America has vast river systems including the Amazon and Parana. It provides a path to sustainable development, energy security and economic growth. Hydropower in South America could contribute to clean and reliable electricity generation. Key hydropower producers in the region

South America is already established in the amount of natural resources for energy available. Geothermal energy is a growing sector that produces clean energy from these resources. It is energy generated from heat emitted from the earth’s interior. This energy resource is promising in the region due to the abundant geothermal resources. There are abundant

South America has embraced the global shift towards decarbonization by committing to ambitious climate targets under the Paris Agreement. Decarbonization is the process of reducing carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities. There are several ways to reduce emissions in the region. These include energy transition, electrification and carbon capture and storage. South America has

The hydrogen economy level in South America is on the rise as the countries recognize the potential of hydrogen. The need to diversify energy sources, reduce greenhouse gas emissions leads to this deployment. This development also harnesses the region’s abundant renewable energy sources. Continued investments, policy support and international cooperation could position the region as

A community-based energy project is a localized initiative designed to produce and manage energy resources for a specific community. These projects are gaining popularity in improving the energy mix of South America. These projects aim to increase energy access, promote sustainability and enhance local economic development. The projects can leverage local resources and involve local
