Desafíos y barreras para desplegar políticas de eficiencia energética en Latinoamérica y el Caribe

<b>Problem:</b> La eficiencia energética se relaciona directamente con acciones para mitigar el cambio climático. Además, tiene otros beneficios adicionales vinculados con el acceso a la energía, la seguridad energética, la productividad de las economías regionales y la creación de empleo, entre otros. Sin embargo, en general existen distintas barreras, las cuales son significactivas cuando hablamos de países en desarrollo como son los de Latinoamérica y el Caribe. Existen barreras económicas, regulatorias, políticas, institucionales, culturales, tecnológicas, de información y de financiamiento, algunas más fuertes que otras dependiendo el país. El desafío es encontrar aquellas políticas, estrategias e instrumentos que permiten remover, o al menos educir, las mencionadas barreras.<br /><b></b><br /><b>Key message:</b> Principales desafíos para desplegar políticas exitosas de eficiencia energética en la región de Latinoamérica y Caribe.<br /><br /><b>Speakers:</b> Andrea Viviana Heins, Odón de Buen<br /><b>Support:</b> Aristeidis Tsakiris<br /><a href="https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/desafios-y-barreras-para-desplegar-politicas-de-eficiencia-energetica-en-latinoamerica-y-el-caribe-podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/desafios-y-barreras-para-desplegar-politicas-de-eficiencia-energetica-en-latinoamerica-y-el-caribe-podcast/</a>

Heat Waves: Energy Efficiency and Nature-Based Solutions

<b>Problem:</b> Heat waves are becoming increasingly frequent and severe due to climate change, posing significant threats to public health, the environment, and the energy infrastructure. Urban areas, with their dense populations and heat-absorbing surfaces, are particularly vulnerable. The rising demand for cooling during these periods strains energy systems, leading to higher greenhouse gas emissions and exacerbating the problem. Traditional cooling methods often rely on energy-intensive technologies, which can be unsustainable and expensive. By incorporating energy efficiency measures, such as advanced cooling technologies and smarter building designs, alongside nature-based solutions like urban greening and green roofs, cities can not only reduce the demand for energy but also create more sustainable and resilient environments. These strategies are essential to mitigating the effects of heat waves while ensuring long-term environmental and economic stability.<br /><b></b><br /><b>Key message:</b> Energy efficiency and nature-based solutions are critical for mitigating the impact of heat waves, reducing energy demand, and enhancing urban resilience.<br /><br /><b>Speakers:</b> Clara Camarasa, Rasmus Anker Pedersen, Simrat Kaur, Nicholas Howarth<br />Support: Aristeidis Tsakiris<br /><a href="https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/heat-waves-energy-efficiency-and-nature-based-solutions-podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/heat-waves-energy-efficiency-and-nature-based-solutions-podcast/</a>

Leyes de eficiencia energética en Latinoamérica y el Caribe

<b>Problem:</b> La eficiencia energética se relaciona directamente con acciones para mitigar el cambio climático. Además, tiene otros beneficios adicionales vinculados con el acceso a la energía, la seguridad energética, la productividad de las economías regionales y la creación de empleo, entre otros. Sin embargo, para lograr acceder al potencial existente de eficiencia energética es necesario derribar distintas barreras: económicas, regulatorias, políticas, institucionales, culturales, tecnológicas, de información y de financiamiento que bloquean el desarrollo de un mercado de bienes y servicios de eficiencia energética. La elaboración y aprobación de una ley de eficiencia energética, que se ajuste al contexto específico del país, es un hito para el desarrollo del sector energético; y si bien la misma no garantiza el éxito de los objetivos planteados, brinda una base sólida que será el sostén para el desarrollo de la eficiencia energética en el país.<br /><b></b><br /><b>Key message:</b> Leyes de Eficiencia Energética como instrumentos para remover barreras, potenciar la adopción de medidas y capturar los múltiples beneficios asociados.<br /><br /><b>Speakers:</b> Andrea Viviana Heins, Afonso Blanco<br /><b>Support:</b> Aristeidis Tsakiris<br /><a href="https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/leyes-de-eficiencia-energetica-en-latinoamerica-y-el-caribe-podcast/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://c2e2.unepccc.org/kms_object/leyes-de-eficiencia-energetica-en-latinoamerica-y-el-caribe-podcast/</a>
