RE+ Cono Sur serves as a pivotal platform, linking Chile with global clean energy leaders, and is the first South American edition of the US-based RE+ Events. The gathering attracted key international companies specializing in critical technologies: Dyness Renewable Energy Group and Jiangsu Junda New Energy from China showcased advanced battery energy storage systems and high-efficiency solar panels tailored to intense radiation environments; Xiamen Universe New Energy provided expertise in mounting structures for extreme climatic conditions. The presence of electric mobility majors such as Tesla, Porsche, Kia, and Great Wall marks Chile’s advancing role in electrifying transport.
Regional integration is reinforced by panels featuring renewable associations from Argentina (CADER), Brazil (ABSOLAR), Uruguay (AUDER), and Chile, collaborating on a shared roadmap for deep decarbonization. Gary Thuro, Chief Business Officer of RE+ Events, noted that Chile’s renewable electricity matrix now exceeds 57%, making it a robust hub for Latin America’s clean energy evolution and attracting international investment.
Simultaneously, this focus aligns with global dynamics as countries like the UK and Spain navigate energy security amid volatile oil markets. Chile’s proactive stance and technology-driven approach position it to leverage renewable energy expansion amid geopolitical uncertainties affecting fossil fuel supplies, underscoring the continent’s broader shift toward sustainable, resilient energy systems.
