Chile is actively seeking European investors to support its transition to renewable energy sources like solar, wind, and green hydrogen.
Marcos Kulka, CEO of H2Chile, emphasized the country’s potential to achieve carbon neutrality by 2040, a decade ahead of global targets.
With ambitious plans to replace coal-fired plants with renewables and produce green hydrogen, Chile aims to decarbonize key industries like copper mining.
Despite challenges in infrastructure and cost, Chile’s commitment to sustainability presents lucrative opportunities for European investors looking to participate in the global energy transition.
