X Energy Week<\/a> in Santiago, Chile. This document compiles statistics, success stories, and multisectoral perspectives, consolidating a shared vision for the future of electric transportation in the region.<\/p>\nNational authorities highlighted the importance of this process. Franz Tattenbach, Costa Rica’s Minister of Environment and Energy, stressed: “Every electric vehicle on the road is concrete action against climate change. Costa Rica has a unique advantage: more than 98% of its electricity comes from renewable sources.” For her part, Silvia Rojas, Executive Director of ASOMOVE, noted that Costa Rica’s progress is the result of coherent public policy, effective incentives, and citizens’ commitment to the energy transition.<\/p>\n
OLACDE’s Executive Secretary, Andr\u00e9s Rebolledo, stated: “Electric mobility is no longer a promise, but a reality that is beginning to transform our cities and the lives of millions of people. Latin America is moving forward decisively, drawing on its wealth of renewable energy, but we still need to strengthen infrastructure and modernize grids so that this change reaches every corner of the region.”<\/p>\n
The study presented by OLACDE also reveals that Brazil and Mexico lead in the number of electric units, while countries such as Guatemala and the Dominican Republic multiplied their fleets in record time. In addition, the region already has more than 6,700 electric buses in operation, contributing to the decarbonization of urban public transportation.<\/p>\n
With these figures, OLACDE reaffirms the strategic role of electric mobility as a key tool for reducing emissions, improving air quality, and ensuring a cleaner, fairer, and more inclusive energy future for Latin America and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
