The energy transition in Latin America and the Caribbean is paving the way for new sustainable solutions, including low-carbon biofuels, which are emerging as a viable alternative for decarbonizing difficult-to-electrify sectors such as land freight, air, and maritime transport. Thanks to their compatibility with existing infrastructure and their ability to generate environmental, social, and economic benefits, these fuels represent a strategic opportunity for the region. However, their development faces technical, logistical, and public policy challenges that must be addressed to unleash their full potential.
This session will analyze the role of biofuels in the region's energy future, highlighting successful experiences, current barriers, and opportunities to scale their implementation in a sustainable and inclusive manner.
