Energy Infrastructure in Latin America the View of the IDBMay 6, 2011 Miami, Florida Sustainable Energy for all
Investment in Infrastructure in LAC Total Public Private Source: Calderon y Servén (2010). Note: Investment in infrastructure includes: telecommunications, electricity, transport (roads and railroads), and water and sanitation. This graph includes the average of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, México y Peru. 2
Latin-America Investments Needs in Infrastructure • Latin-America is Investing in Infrastructure Below the Required Demand • The LAC Region invest 1.9% of GDP in Infrastructure (US$43.9 billion), the average investment in the developing world is 5% of the GDP. • Investment Requirements: • 1.0% of the GDP to maintain the existing Infrastructure • 1.6% of GDP for new investments related to demand (totaling a 2.6% of the GDP or US$81.2 billion). • Example - if LAC were to achieve universal electricity coverage - needs to invest an additional to the above 0.05 % of the GDP per-year. 3

Latin America Investment Needs in the Energy Sector • The projected annual energy demand growth is 4.8%. • LAC would have to invest approximately US$28 billion per year (2009 – 2026) in the electricity sector alone: • Generation US$15 billion (100,000-MW) • Transmission from US$4,5 billion • Distribution US$8,5 billion • Would also have invest between US$80 to US$90 billion in the Oil & Gas sector • Conventional production US$68 billion • Unconventional production US$9 billion • Refining US$5 billion • Transport US$4 billion 5
Latin-America is the cleanest region in the world in Power Generation Hydro power generation per Region LAC has the 20.5% of the world hydro power generation, while generating just the 3.6% of CO2 emissions.

Energy Efficiency • LAC lags in investments in Energy Efficiency: • To reduce consumption • To lower peak demands, avoiding less efficient generation and more GHG • Most countries have only implemented CFL bulb replacement • It is estimated that a reduction of 10% of consumption in LAC through Energy Efficiency could cost some US$17 billion. To supply that energy with capacity expansion would cost some US$53 billion. • Areas where more effort is needed: • Public Sector Energy Efficiency (buildings and roads) • Variable speed motors • Efficient cooling & heating • Commercial and Residential insulation • Load coordination and peak disconnection 8
Regional Energy Integration: Central American Isthmus Electric Interconnection Project SIEPAC • Achieving these savings has required: • Participation of Panamá, Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua and El Salvador (1996); Colombia (2005); and Mexico (2009). • Legal Framework: • Treaty among countries (1992). • Governance mechanisms: • Regional Regulator (CRIE); • Grid Operator (EOR); • Owner of the Interconnection line • Transitory Regulatory framework (2002); • Regional Electricity Market regulation (2011). • Investments: • US$494 million (MDBs, IFIs, Commercial Banks, Countries); • Grants from IDB: US$24 million. • Estimated expenditures required without SIEPAC (2011-2025): • Investments: US$11.7 Billion • O&M: US$10.1 Billion • Savings with a joint planning of the expansion of capacity and joint operation of the grid: • Investments: US$1.2 Billion • O&M: US$0.3 Billion • Savings with an interconnection with Colombia and a second SIEPAC circuit (2014): • Investments: US$2.1 billion • O&M: US$1.7 billion 9
