Central American Regional Programmatic Study for the Energy Sector : General Issues and Options - Sector Overview
The six Central American countries of Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama share a long tradition of regional integration, including a common market, substantial intraregional trade, as well as coordinated commercial policies, such as the Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) with the US. The most significant example of regional integration in the energy subsector consists of the Sistema de Interconexion Electrica para America Central (SIEPAC), an interconnection line that is expected to link the six countries in mid-2010. The creation of the interconnection has been a long-term effort, starting in the early 1990s and culminating in 2010. This report provides an overview of the energy sector in Central America, with a focus on the power subsector, and highlights the key challenges and options for meeting future energy and development goals. One of the main objectives of the study is to identify paths for collective action whereby individual countries, and the region as a whole, could benefit from a more integrated approach to developing energy infrastructure and connecting energy markets.

description |
The six Central American countries of
Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and
Panama share a long tradition of regional integration,
including a common market, substantial intraregional trade,
as well as coordinated commercial policies, such as the
Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA) with the US.
The most significant example of regional integration in the
energy subsector consists of the Sistema de Interconexion
Electrica para America Central (SIEPAC), an interconnection
line that is expected to link the six countries in mid-2010.
The creation of the interconnection has been a long-term
effort, starting in the early 1990s and culminating in 2010.
This report provides an overview of the energy sector in
Central America, with a focus on the power subsector, and
highlights the key challenges and options for meeting future
energy and development goals. One of the main objectives of
the study is to identify paths for collective action whereby
individual countries, and the region as a whole, could
benefit from a more integrated approach to developing energy
infrastructure and connecting energy markets. |

El Banco Mundial ha llevado a cabo una serie de estudios con el objetivo de lograr una mejor compresión de los retos energéticos a los que se enfrentan estos seis países de América Central unidos por el Sistema de Interconexión Eléctrica Para América Central (SIEPAC), y de identificar medidas para la promoción de un desarrollo dinámico en el sector. En el marco de una serie titulada “Estudio programático del sector energía para América Central”, un grupo de expertos en política energética, ingenieros y economistas han preparado estudios, haciendo hincapié en el subsector eléctrico. Este documento en particular, el “Módulo de asuntos generales y opciones”, presenta un panorama general del sector energético en América Central, pone el foco del análisis en el subsector eléctrico, y resalta los desafíos y opciones claves para satisfacer el logro de las futuras metas energéticas y de desarrollo. Uno de los principales objetivos del estudio es identificar los caminos para la acción colectiva por los cuales los países en forma individual, y la región en su conjunto, podrían beneficiarse a través de un enfoque más integrado para desarrollar la infraestructura energética y conectar los mercados energéticos. 2012-03-19T10:26:45Z 2012-03-19T10:26:45Z 2010-11-01 http://www-wds.worldbank.org/external/default/main?menuPK=64187510&pagePK=64193027&piPK=64187937&theSitePK=523679&menuPK=64187510&searchMenuPK=64187283&siteName=WDS&entityID=000333037_20110721000918 https://hdl.handle.net/10986/2997 English CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank application/pdf text/plain application/pdf text/plain World Bank |
