Abstract

Purpose. Analysis of state innovative energy policy “Green economy” of Latin America and the Caribbean and search of the investment sources needed for implementation of the researched energy policy. Methods. The research rests on comparative analysis methods of public economic tools used for support and development of renewable energy sources in Latin America and the Caribbean. The authors used economic-statistical analysis methods for performing calculations. Results and practical importance. The authors identified development trends of innovative energy policy, in particular, in development of renewable energy sources in Latin America and the Caribbean; determined the most efficient sources for investing Latin-American energy policy; spelled recommendations on successful transition to innovative energy policy. Scientific novelty. The authors proposed original judgment on development of renewable energy sources in Latin America and the Caribbean; proved prospective viability of using new financing channels of the energy branch on a Latin-American market; introduces practical recommendations on energy policy optimization.
