Hydro electric power is the dominant energy source in the Amazon, with dozens of new dams being planned. The region generates 26% of Brazil’s electricity, is home to 13% of the population, yet 1 million residents have poor access to electric power. Ironically, hydroelectric power benefits those far away but leaves out many nearby. The consequent dependencies on fuel shipped up river create local economic stresses and corresponding reliance on deforestation economies to pay for it. How can Amazonia achieve energy independence and reduce forest loss? What are the technologies available? Who are the startups leading the way? What are the roles of municipal, state and federal governments? How will climate and precipitation changes affect future energy security? Join us for a panel discussion and learn. You will meet Oliver Utne of Kara Solar, Uolli Longo Briotto of ICLEI / Amazon Cities Forum, and Juan Fermin Rodriguez of Kingo.
