The Executive Secretary of the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE), Andrés Rebolledo, together with his executive team, carried out a technical visit to the National University of Engineering (UNI) in Peru, where he was received by Rector Arturo Talledo Coronado.
The visit took place within the framework of the ETRELA project, funded by the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of the German Government, which seeks to improve education and training in renewable energies and energy efficiency in Latin America and the Caribbean.
The project, led by OLADE along with technical partners such as Renewables Academy (RENAC) and Global Factor, and universities from beneficiary countries, promotes the creation of updated curricular programs, state-of-the-art training centers, and specialized courses for training trainers.
Among its benefits are the installation of demonstrative equipment with sustainable technology, the provision of specialists to the local industry, and the development of quality standards in renewable energy education.
During the tour of UNI’s facilities and the demonstrative center implemented under the ETRELA project, the importance of these initiatives was highlighted for expanding the supply of professionals in the sector and fostering a sustainable and inclusive energy transition in the region.
With this visit, OLADE reaffirms its commitment to academic and technical cooperation in Latin America and the Caribbean, driving joint solutions that strengthen training and the development of regional capacities.
