3 3 Energy Matrix in LAC Energy Supply----In Latin America, about three quarters of energy consumption come from oil, gas and coal, the other fuel sources being nuclear, biomass, hydro and other new renewables. Energy Supply----In Latin America, about three quarters of energy consumption come from oil, gas and coal, the other fuel sources being nuclear, biomass, hydro and other new renewables. Hydropower accounts for over half of installed generation capacity in Latin America, and other renewables (geothermal, wind, solar, etc) represents only 1%. The share of total renewable sources has however declined over the last decade.

5 5 Energy Access and Investment Needs Energy Access----Nearly 100 million people in Latin America (about 20% of the total population) still rely on traditional biomass for cooking and heating. Over 65 million people do not have access to electricity, including both the rural and peri-urban areas. Also the peri-urban residents with access often experience erratic supply.

Over 65 million people do not have access to electricity, including both the rural and peri-urban areas. Also the peri-urban residents with access often experience erratic supply. Investment Needs----The World Bank study shows that an investment of US$215 billion is needed in the LAC electricity sector between 2005 and 2015. To achieve a 70% coverage of rural households and 100% coverage of urban households over the next decade, the required investment need is estimated to be US$ 56 billion.

9 9 Some Project Examples the Nicaragua Off-grid Rural Electrification and Bolivia Decentralized Infrastructure for Rural Transformation Projects provide electricity to remote villages and dispersed users with renewables. Both projects use output-based aid schemes with payment tied to actual delivery of specific service level and quality. The innovative nature of this scheme is that it moves beyond traditional lending schemes toward results-based frameworks. the Nicaragua Off-grid Rural Electrification and Bolivia Decentralized Infrastructure for Rural Transformation Projects provide electricity to remote villages and dispersed users with renewables.

The innovative nature of this scheme is that it moves beyond traditional lending schemes toward results-based frameworks. The Colombia Jepirachi Carbon Offset Project contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from the power sector in Colombia through the promotion of a 19.5 MW wind-based electricity generation facility. The project is expected to generate a revenue of US$3.2 million by selling the carbon emission reduction credits. Part of the carbon revenue will be dedicated to co-finance a social program that will contribute to improvements in the welfare of the local indigenous community.

12 12 G8 Call: Clean Energy and Development Investment Framework The G8 Gleneagles summit requested the Bank to develop a clean energy investment framework in last July to accelerate investment so that developing countries can meet energy demands for growth and poverty alleviation in an environmentally sustainable way. The Bank is following a two ‑ track approach: --- by end of this year, analyze our current existing instruments, the potential role of the private sector, and the potential role of other partners such as the regional banks. --- for the next two years, do in ‑ depth country studies to develop technology options and action plans The Framework were generally endorsed by the Bank shareholders at the Spring Meetings 2006.

14 14 Opportunities for LAC The five large developing countries were identified LAC is an essential part of this new G8 initiative. Consultations with Brazil and Mexico identified substantial diagnostic and analytic work programs. The five large developing countries were identified LAC is an essential part of this new G8 initiative. Consultations with Brazil and Mexico identified substantial diagnostic and analytic work programs. The programs for Brazil including scaling-up renewable energy development through expanded hydro and bioenergy; improvement of urban and industrial energy efficiency; natural gas development; and implementation of the forested area strategy. The programs for Brazil including scaling-up renewable energy development through expanded hydro and bioenergy; improvement of urban and industrial energy efficiency; natural gas development; and implementation of the forested area strategy. The programs for Mexico include energy diversification; energy efficiency improvement in buildings and industry; sustainable transport development; and scaling up low-carbon options including expanding renewable energy and industrial and refinery efficiency (such as cogeneration).
