The meeting of both leaders will take place this Tuesday, September 5 at 08:00 a.m. at the Hyatt Hotel (Montevideo), within the framework of a new space in the Desayunos Útiles series organized by We are Uruguayand which will be called “Second energy transition”.
On August 23, the president of ancap, Alejandro Stipanicicparticipated in the cycle celebrated in the Carrasco International Airport (cannelloni), lecturing on the same topic as the current exhibitors.
Decarbonization is a long-term plan in Uruguay
There, the president of Ancap stressed that decarbonization must take place in a “realistic” framework, and that it contemplates “a long process of time.”
In turn, he analyzed the situation of the global market for the production of energy and stressed the fact that, while acting for the development of the new green energy“traditional production, based on fossil fuels, is still necessary, and the only one that can provide immediate solutions to countries that need it.”
On this point, the head of the autonomous entity highlighted that irenathe international agency for renewable energy“proposes six routes to reach carbon neutrality” and conceded that “half is given by the incorporation of renewable energy and for the efficient use of energy“.
However, he put the focus on the remaining half. About this percentage, he indicated that “there is 20% that has to do with electrification, 10% with the incorporation of hydrogen as an energy vector, 6% in the capture of CO2 that fossil fuels emit into the atmosphere, and the remaining 14% by new forms of fuels”.
