Strengthening and Modernizing Transmission Systems in LAC

preparation

The objective of this Technical Cooperation (TC) is to strengthen the institutional, regulatory, and technical capacities of Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) countries to accelerate the development of resilient, sustainable, and inclusive transmission infrastructure, building on the findings of the Transmission Flagship Report and aligned with the Power Transmission Acceleration Platform (PTAP). The TC will help governments and system operators to improve transmission planning, streamline licensing and permitting processes, support the deployment of modern and innovative technologies, identify and structure climate finance for transmission, and enhancing institutional capacity and knowledge exchange across the region. In doing so, the TC will contribute to unlocking investment pipelines, enabling renewable energy integration, reducing project delays, and strengthening the resilience and competitiveness of LAC power systems.
