La Encuesta Global de Energías Limpias 2025 revela que el sector energético está en camino hacia estrategias de energía limpia, pero ¿Cómo se traduce en acciones concretas para LATAM?
Energías Limpias y Transición Energética en América Latina
América Latina se encuentra en el centro de una transformación energética global sin precedentes.
En un contexto donde el cambio climático, la presión regulatoria y la innovación tecnológica marcan el rumbo, la región emerge como un actor estratégico gracias a su abundancia de recursos renovables y minerales esenciales para la transición energética. Sin embargo, este potencial viene acompañado de retos estructurales: desde la volatilidad económica hasta las brechas en financiamiento, seguros y estabilidad regulatoria.
Nuestro nuevo informe revela que el 100% de las empresas del sector energético ya ha comenzado su camino hacia estrategias de energía limpia. Pero ¿cómo se traduce esto en acciones concretas en América Latina? ¿Qué papel juegan países como México, Brasil o Chile en el desarrollo del hidrógeno verde o el almacenamiento en baterías? ¿Y cómo pueden las empresas convertir los riesgos —como las cadenas de suministro frágiles o la incertidumbre política— en oportunidades asegurables?
Este artículo no solo presenta un diagnóstico detallado de la situación actual, sino que ofrece un llamado a la acción: crear marcos regulatorios estables, fomentar alianzas público-privadas e innovar en modelos de aseguramiento y financiamiento son pasos clave para que América Latina lidere esta transición. En un momento crítico, la región tiene la oportunidad de posicionarse como una potencia energética sostenible, resiliente y global.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that $4 trillion of clean energy investment will be needed every year from now until 2050 in order to reach net zero targets.[1] This means organizations exploring and investing, working out what technologies and systems work best for them, and plotting the trajectory of their own clean energy transition while keeping a firm grip on immediate commercial priorities.
The pressures impacting the natural resources industry are not binary. They are diverse, complex and interconnected:
Regulatory pressures to uphold environmental, social and governance commitments
Financial pressures to boost return on investment
Operational pressures to build efficiencies and secure energy supplies
Competitive pressures to maintain and grow market share
Social pressures to decarbonize
Maintaining stable energy supplies and healthy revenue flows are commercial priorities, but the need to participate in the clean energy transition is unavoidable. The question is, how can companies get that balance right? In navigating these challenges, making the right decisions at the right time could be the difference between success and failure.
If companies aren’t properly prepared with an informed view of their risks, any of these pressures could tip the balance. At this pivotal moment, our Global Clean Energy Survey aims to take the pulse on how companies of all sizes, in all locations and sectors, are preparing for and advancing their clean energy strategy.
The key findings
01
Investment will increase by over a third in 2025
34% is the average expected increase in spend on clean energy technologies and infrastructure in the next financial year, rising from an average $185 million in 2024-25 to $249 million.
02
Technology priorities are shifting
51% rated solar as a top priority in the near and medium term. In the medium to long term, 61% prioritize battery storage solutions and carbon capture and storage. Geothermal and hydrogen emerged as high priorities over a 10-year horizon.
03
Supply chain and geopolitics are top risks
79% named supply chain disruption and 78% geopolitical issues among the greatest risks to their clean energy strategy, reflecting concerns over trade tensions and changes to subsidies and regulations at a time of increasing global volatility.
04
Firms face challenges getting the right insurance
53% said blanket exclusions (53%) were an obstacle to transferring their risks, followed by limited duration of insurance (48%), and lack of suitable products (47%), indicating a need for insurance markets to develop new and better solutions for clean energy risks.
05
All natural resources companies are on a clean energy pathway
100% of natural resources companies in our survey have a clean energy strategy, but with different levels of maturity. As we would expect, 71% of renewables companies are at the implementing or fully implemented stage, compared to 36% for oil and gas, 63% for power and 43% for mining and metals.
How to build a sustainable future for your business in the clean energy transition
In building a sustainable future, it all starts with reassessing the critical issues specific to your business. Review where you need to focus. What are your short- and long-term goals? Which risks – both established and emerging – pose the biggest threats? Which solutions and capabilities can help you make decisions with confidence? Where might you need more support?
Navigate conflicting and competing priorities in a transforming industry with a clean energy risk strategy that gets the balance right.
