Launched in 2016, the LAC BioE-CoP provides support for and facilitates peer exchange amongst, policymakers and experts who work to advance bioenergy policies and actions in their countries. Building upon broad technical, socio-economic, financial and policy debate in its inaugural year, the online sessions and in-person workshop in 2017 delved deeply into bioelectricity investment risks and de-risking measures. Responding to the demands of the currently 11 participating countries’, the 2018 focus is centered on biogas, and in particular the design of effective policy and regulatory environments capable of attracting investment in sustainable projects. For more information and materials from the CoP,  click here.
