ENERGY

Led by our energy expert, Jeremy Martin , this program is recognized as one of the oldest energy policy initiatives in the Western Hemisphere.
In a region confronted
with ever more complex energy issues, the program examines the geopolitics of energy -- security, integration and investment. Through a series of meetings and conferences that bring together industry analysts, business leaders and policy makers, the Institute offers comprehensive analysis of public policy on oil, electricity, LNG and natural gas.
