Energy Transition – Quo Vadis

Revisiting Supply-Side Policies in Ecuador

Alarcón, Pedro
  • Extractivism has shaped Ecuador for the last half century.
  • The Yasuní initiative aimed at leaving about one fifth of Ecuador’s oil reserves underground
  • Poor handling of the Ecuadorian government and the international community let it falter and finally fade
  • Energy transition towards renewable energy sources might provide a new scenario in which supply side policies such as leaving fossil fuels underground and fossil fuel non proliferation treaties might be (re --)tested
