Session

A Decade of Transition: Assessment of the Impact of the Paris Agreement on the Sector and Projections of Its Evolution

Topic: Just Energy Transitions
Session information

Ten years after the Paris Agreement, Latin America and the Caribbean have made significant progress in integrating climate goals into their energy strategies, promoting the development of renewable sources, energy efficiency, and greater resilience to climate change. The energy sector has played a key role in this process, with improvements in regulatory frameworks, access to green financing, and increasing participation by public and private stakeholders. This session will offer a retrospective look at the region's evolution through its Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), the commitments adopted at the COPs, and their links to the energy agenda. Drawing on lessons learned and synergies with sustainable development, emerging challenges and opportunities to accelerate climate action in the next decade will be analyzed. The debate will emphasize how countries are adapting their policies in the face of a changing global landscape, highlighting the role of regional cooperation, technological innovation, and the need to move toward a more just, inclusive, and ambitious energy transition.
