Latin America Power & Energy Outlook, 2022
Acceleration of RE Deployment to Ensure Transformational Growth of the Power Sector and Strengthen the Business Case for Digitalization, Diversification of Business Models, and Green Hydrogen Projects
23-Mar-2022
Latin America
Market Outlook
The Latin American power and energy market is going through a considerable transformation. Renewable energies (RE) are rapidly replacing hydropower and fossil fuels’ dominance in power generation expansion as energy regulations continue to evolve to support decarbonization and decentralization roadmaps, while securing energy access for a projected average electricity demand growth rate of 1.9% per year until 2030.
Despite the pandemic, 2021 was a great year for RE deployment in Latin America, and 2022 will witness the continuity of that momentum as governments and corporations continue pursuing their sustainability targets. Frost & Sullivan predicts that more than $29.66 billion will be invested in the power generation sector in the region in 2022, with RE sources accounting for 81% of that total. The growth in RE demands increased digitalization of grids and diversification of business models, and creates opportunities for green hydrogen projects.
