Latin America's Energy Transition: Time for a Breakthrough?

No one doubts Latin America’s potential in areas of an energy transition, like the development of green hydrogen and lithium. But while some projects are moving forward, the region is still punching below its weight in terms of attracting investment. 

Where are the areas of greatest opportunity for the energy transition? What can we expect from politics in Chile, Mexico, Argentina, and Brazil? What is the role of state-run companies? This in-person event at AS/COA's headquarters will launch Americas Quarterly's latest special report on Latin America's economic prospects despite the headwinds. 

Online registration is now closed.
