China is establishing itself as a leader in the energy transition process through its accelerated domestic transition trajectory, but also through its large-scale production and export of clean energy technologies. Is this leadership role reflected in its financing and investment abroad?
This webinar seeks to analyze whether China plays an important role in the energy transition process in South America through its investment and financing in renewable energy, but also in fossil energy in the region. To this end, the specific case of Brazil – a country that, in addition to its strong relationship with China, stands out simultaneously for its potential in renewable energy generation and the volume of its hydrocarbon reserves – will be addressed.
