Outlook 2025: The energy transition and the Southern Cone
The region has ample resources of both gas and renewable energy and developing both will be vital to the global effort to reduce emissions
The world needs to reduce global warming by lowering greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Considering that almost 73% of GHG emissions are generated by energy use, achieving this goal is extremely challenging, especially if we aim to provide energy to all people around the world. Rapidly transitioning the current energy sector to one with low emissions is an enormous task and requires the collaboration of all global players. It is also essential to achieve sustainable socioeconomic development for a growing world population. It is fair to recognise that the efforts required for a successful transition should not be uniform across all countries or regions. We must consider multiple transitions rat
