This month saw two major announcements relating to investment in clean energy infrastructure in Latin America:
- Chile announced plans to issue Latin America’s first sovereign green bond with the goal of raising up to $1.5 billion to support eligible green projects in six sectors: clean transportation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, living natural resources, land use and marine protected areas, water management and green buildings.
- Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners announced that it had raised $700 million in the first closing of a new fund focused on renewable energy infrastructure in Asia and Latin America. The fund is expected to raise a total of $1 billion and will target investments in offshore and onshore wind, solar PV, biomass and waste-to-energy and transmission grid systems among others.
As of 2018, Brazil, Mexico, and Chile are the top countries receiving cross-border clean energy investment in Latin America.
