About us
The Energy Hub is a meeting point that collects, integrates, disseminates and promotes information and data on the energy sector in Latin America and the Caribbean. This site facilitates the search and use of data, and directs the user to the original sources, which reduces information gaps and promotes the creation of knowledge for innovation, energy efficiency and better decision making in the sector. We work together with our partners, academia, and the public and private sectors to gather in one place data and information in different areas of interest in the sector, mainly grid infrastructure, access and affordability, innovation, and renewable energy, among others.

Values
We want the Hub to be a joint, dynamic work of participation, interaction and dialogue of the actors involved in the energy sector in Latin America and the Caribbean.
From the energy sector, we believe that the ability to gather evidence, data and information in an adequate way is key to face the challenges when making decisions that allow improving people's quality of life.
We see innovation as a driver of growth, development and evolution of the energy sector in the region, and we want the Hub to provide and promote the creation of the information and knowledge necessary to foster this innovation.
We treat information as a public good, open, free to use, transparent and easily accessible to all. Because we believe that access to information is key for an evolving society.
We want to be the most complete Hub of information and knowledge on energy in Latin America and the Caribbean, whose data are key to accelerate the region's energy transition.
University network
The Gigawatts (GW) research projects allow the development of new indicators, as well as the continuous collection of data with special emphasis on the topics of access, integration, energy security, sustainability, innovation, regulation and governance.
The Energy Dossiers provide concise and orderly information on the composition and organization of each country's energy sector, including the regulatory framework, institutional framework, technical and economic characteristics of the sector.
