Seventy-five percent of consumption is supplied by regional production, which demonstrates a strong foundation of self-sufficiency that supports energy security, integration, and a low-emission transition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"942\" data-end=\"1287\">He also noted that even under carbon neutrality scenarios by 2050, natural gas will still account for 20% of the region&#8217;s energy matrix. In this context, he announced that OLACDE, in partnership with CAF, is promoting investments, infrastructure studies, and tools such as the Methane Observatory to support the decarbonization of gas production.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\">Guido Maiulini, Head of Strategic Advisory at OLACDE, also participated in the seminar and emphasized the strategic value of natural gas in improving electric system reliability and regional competitiveness. \u201cThe reliability of our power systems also depends on stronger gas integration. If we move forward pragmatically and with cooperation, the entire region can benefit. Often, what holds back integration is how collective rents are distributed. That\u2019s a barrier we must overcome,\u201d he stressed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2200\" data-end=\"2413\">OLACDE is currently leading a technical study with CAF\u2019s support to identify opportunities for shared infrastructure and move toward effective gas integration with a long-term vision and strong regional commitment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OLACDE
