The renewable energy market is fast-paced and growing with each passing day. It’s hard to keep up with every industry announcement and insight, so we decided to highlight interesting developments that took place during the past few weeks, and some valuable insights that are worth revisiting.

In the pages that follow, you’ll find out more about why industry experts are saying Latin America’s renewable energy market is set to blossom. For example, Chile, labeled the hottest renewable energy market in the world, recently scored $7 billion in renewable investments, while Mexico implemented an energy reform package that may bolster huge returns for solar projects. 

Brazil, a developing country that is oft-blamed for increased carbon emissions, is striving to turn the story around and promote their green initiatives, such as their leadership in the biofuels sector — Jim Lane of Biofuels Digest highlights the top 10 biofuels trends in the country. In other parts of the developing world, Kara Dewhurst explains the need for a carefully planned social impact assessment for successful and sustainable geothermal projects and details a new project in Colombia that does just that.

Check out two commentary pieces filled with insight on Latin American project development.
