INSTITUTE OF THE AMERICAS 2023 ANNUAL REPORT

ANNUAL REPORT 2023

Research and Publications

The year also proved quite active with a wide range of unique research and publications. In late January, we published our 2023 Energy Landscape and Outlook that set forth a high-level overview and insights featuring our team of Non-Resident Fellows. In June, we published The Key Role of Seafarers in National Economies in a Net-Zero World, a report commissioned by the International Chamber of Shipping. In August, we published the first brief by our China-Latin America Non-Resident Fellow, Thiago de Aragão. In November, and in collaboration with the United States Department of State Bureau of Energy Resources as well as Deloitte, a Steering Committee member, we were pleased to publish Advancing Prosperity and Tackling Climate Change in Central America: U.S. Department of State Power Sector Program Initiatives. Also in November, we published a white paper prepared for the North American Forum meeting in Monterrey focused on nearshoring in Mexico and the importance of reliable clean energy and infrastructure. IOA’s energy program is now also actively working on another policy brief that assesses the mining sector in an energy transition world. IOA is also completing a comparative analysis of the national oil companies in Latin America with a focus on net zero and energy transition performance.
