future in the Americas</h2> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas promotes sustainable energy development and a net-zero emissions future.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We support countries in the Americas in their transition to clean, resilient, and inclusive energy systems by providing a platform for multilateral coordination, public-private cooperation, capacity building, and outreach.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Six <strong>fundamental pillars</strong> guide ECPA鈥檚 initiatives:</span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>Cleaner Energy Sources</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Promote the decarbonization of the energy system, transportation, industry, and housing in the Americas, through cooperation for the sustainable production and use of all forms of renewable energy and other low-carbon sources to enhance the sustainable energy development of the region.</span></p> <p><strong><br /> Universal Access to Energy</strong></p> <p>Ensure universal access to clean, safe and affordable energy, prioritizing sustainable energy development in rural areas, vulnerable regions and historically marginalized communities.</p> <p>Promote inclusion in the energy sector, fostering ethnic, social and gender diversity and equality in regards to employment, wage, training access and leadership opportunities.</p> <p> </p> <p><b>Energy Efficiency</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Encourage the development of public policies that promote responsible energy consumption and the adoption of more efficient and cleaner technologies in the residential, industrial, commercial and transport sectors.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><b>Regional Integration</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Promote technical and policy coordination for interconnection based mainly on renewable energies, harmonization of standards and exchange of knowledge among the countries of the Americas.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><b>Energy Resilience</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Promote the development of energy systems with greater capacity for adaptation and recovery from the impacts of climate change, with particular consideration of the specific vulnerabilities of island states and developing countries.</span></p> <p> </p> <p><b>Innovation</b></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Promote research and implementation of new technologies and processes, as well as nature-based solutions, that accelerate the energy transition and contribute to the adaptation and mitigation of the effects of climate change.</span></p> <p><strong>聽</strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">ECPA is a program of the Department of Sustainable Development of the Organization of American States (OAS). It is the only platform for energy dialogue and cooperation that includes the entire region and engages governments and companies in the promotion of energy sustainability.</span></p> <p> </p> <h4>Background</h4> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the Summit of the Americas held in April 2009 in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, the leaders of the Western Hemisphere noted that the energy transition is one of the most significant challenges that their countries will face and reaffirmed their commitment to work together for a sustainable energy future.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In response to this issue, the governments of the region, together with civil society and private sector representatives, promoted the creation of the Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas as a flexible mechanism for the development of shared strategies to encourage the adoption of renewable energy sources and promote climate action.</span></p> <p> </p> <h4>Technical Coordination Unit</h4> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In June 2009, at the Symposium on Energy and Climate in the Americas, the participating governments established the fundamental guidelines and initial structure of the program, leading to the creation of a Technical Coordination Unit in charge of organizing, promoting and supervising the actions carried out by ECPA.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Since its creation, the Technical Coordination Unit has operated within the Department of Sustainable Development of the General Secretariat of the Organization of American States (OAS) and is committed to fostering inter-institutional partnerships, promoting dialogue among countries and stakeholders, generating opportunities for the exchange of experiences and leading outreach initiatives.</span></p> <p> </p> <h4>Steering Committee</h4> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At the Second ECPA Ministerial Meeting, held in 2015, the participating countries stressed the need to strengthen operational aspects of the ECPA initiative. To that end, they established a Steering Committee, which guides ECPA鈥檚 activities and seeks to represent the interests and reflect the particularities of each subregion in the Americas.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The members of this governing body strive to ensure ECPA鈥檚 effectiveness, propose actions that support the priorities identified in the Action Plan, and identify technical and financial resources to implement them</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Steering Committee comprises 10 countries and is chaired by the Dominican Republic, host of the 2024 ministerial meeting.</span></p> <p> </p> <p>Steering Committee Members:</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Argentina, </strong><strong>Chile, </strong><strong>Colombia, </strong><strong>Costa Rica, </strong><strong>Dominican Republic, </strong><strong>Jamaica, </strong><strong>Mexico, </strong><strong>Panama, </strong><strong>Trinidad and Tobago and </strong><strong>United States.</strong></p> <p> </p> </div> </div> <div class="col-4 p-0"> <div class="box-categorias"> <h5>Category Listing</h5> <ul class="m-0 p-0"> <li><a href="#">ECPA Newsletter</a></li> </ul> <p>Show All</p> <h5>Archived Categories</h5> <ul class="m-0 p-0"> <li><a href="#">ECPA Newsletter</a></li> <li><a href="#">Past Initiatives News</a></li> <li><a href="#">General News</a></li> </ul class="m-0 p-0"> <p>Show All</p> <h5>Thematic Areas</h5> <img src="https://ecpamericas.org/wp-content/themes/ecpa/assets/img/Image-mundo.png" class="img-world"> <a href="#" class="boton-green">View Map</a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <footer> <section class="container-darkgreen"> <div class="container"> <div class="row m-0"> <div class="col-12 p-0"> <div class=""> <ul class="m-0 p-0 footer-espace1"> <li><img src="https://ecpamericas.org/wp-content/themes/ecpa/assets/img/icons_news.svg"></li> <li><img src="https://ecpamericas.org/wp-content/themes/ecpa/assets/img/icons_calendar.svg"></li> <li><img src="https://ecpamericas.org/wp-content/themes/ecpa/assets/img/icons_mail.svg"></li> <li><p>Subscribe to our monthly newsletter!</p></li> <li class="bloque-suscribete"> <div class="option-button"> <script>(function() { window.mc4wp = window.mc4wp || { listeners: [], forms: { on: function(evt, cb) { window.mc4wp.listeners.push( { event : evt, callback: cb } );
