What are the immediate impacts of the "One Big Beautiful Bill"'s energy provisions on Latin America's energy sector and investment flows?

The "One Big Beautiful Bill" passed by the US House of Representatives significantly alters US energy policy, eliminating incentives for renewable energy and boosting fossil fuel support. This shift undermines the US's previous role as a partner in Latin America's energy transition, potentially impacting investment and supply chains. The bill also includes punitive taxes on renewable projects using components from "prohibited" countries like China.

How do OPEC's projections for oil demand compare to those of other agencies, and what factors account for these differences?

OPEC's projections contrast with those of the International Energy Agency (IEA), which anticipates peak oil demand sometime after the end of the decade. This divergence highlights differing perspectives on future energy consumption patterns, influenced by factors such as economic growth and the adoption of renewable energy sources. The current oil price of around $70 per barrel reflects market uncertainty surrounding trade tensions and potential oversupply issues.
