The workshop will bring together policy makers, regulators, leading practitioners, and academia to share advancements in electricity regulation from around the world.
The event will focus on insights and lessons learned by electricity regulators both in developed and developing countries over the last 25 years, emphasizing adaptability and innovation as essential components for resilient and secure power systems. This is particularly relevant amid the “electrify everything” trend and growing penetration of intermittent renewable electricity. This analysis will provide valuable lessons on regulatory successes and challenges worldwide, particularly relevant to the region of Latin America and the Caribbean.
The workshop will also highlight key success factors behind effective regulatory frameworks that promote energy security, sustainability, co-investment, and job creation, offering models for other countries. Discussions will explore regulatory evolution in response to challenges specific to each country, ultimately aiming at establishing a functioning wholesale electricity market. Concluding with a global perspective, the workshop will provide advice on establishing robust, transparent, and effective regulatory frameworks, offering advice for countries aiming to strengthen their regulatory systems, building institutional capacity and enhancing autonomy of regulatory agencies amidst evolving energy challenges.
