The Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE) received at its headquarters in Quito the visit of Manuel Otero, Director General of the Inter-American Institute for Cooperation on Agriculture (IICA), along with his executive team.
During the meeting, strategic issues for the region were addressed, including:
• Water resource management: a priority challenge to ensure energy security and the sustainability of production systems.
• Energy impact of artificial intelligence: its growing adoption in the global economy demands resilient infrastructure and regulatory frameworks adapted to the increase in electricity demand.
• Opportunities of biofuels: their development opens new possibilities to diversify the energy matrix and advance toward a low-carbon transition, with benefits for agriculture and the regional industry.
This meeting strengthens the cooperation between OLADE and IICA, consolidating a shared commitment to promote joint solutions that integrate energy sustainability, technological innovation, and the well-being of communities in Latin America and the Caribbean.
