NO MÁS APAGONES

Help Build a Strategy to End Venezuela's Electricity Crisis

No Más Apagones is a campaign to develop practical strategies to address the blackouts and electricity shortages that are undermining Venezuela's quality of life and economic future.The first step is understanding the situation. We are asking businesses and organizations across Venezuela to participate in a short national survey. It takes only a few minutes.

WHY PARTICIPATE?

A few minutes of your time can help build a more accurate picture of Venezuela's electricity needs, identify best practices that businesses can use today, support better public policy, and help attract investment and technology to the country. Survey participants will receive access to the results, information on relevant energy technologies, and updates on initiatives emerging from the research.Participants will also have access to the VZ Economics platform, connecting entrepreneurs, executives and investors with:

Investment and partnership opportunities
Market intelligence and technology research
News and analysis on Venezuela's reconstruction
Investor, company and project profiles

THE ELECTRIFICATION BASELINE REPORT

Venezuela's electricity crisis has become one of the greatest obstacles to economic recovery. Businesses face blackouts, unreliable power and insufficient electricity to operate and grow. Rebuilding the national grid will take years.But businesses cannot wait years. Distributed Energy Resources and new technologies can help restore productivity today.

Job One: Understand what is happening now
We are surveying businesses across industries and regions to understand the impact of unreliable electricity, how companies are responding, and which solutions are working.

Job Two: Identify solutions that can be deployed now
The Altru Climate Project and Davos Technology Platform are scanning the globe for proven technologies that could address Venezuela's immediate energy needs.

WHAT THE REPORT CONTAINS

Geographic & sectoral assesment

The Electrification Baseline Report provides a comprehensive diagnostic analyzing power demand across 8 key geographic regions and 10 critical application sectors (including oil & gas, manufacturing, agriculture, and healthcare):

8 Strategic Regions: From the Western Oil & Industrial Hub to the Capital Corridor and Guayana Hydroelectric Zone
10 Application Sectors: Pinpointing specific energy deficits and critical enterprise vulnerabilities

Deployable distributed energy technologies

Leveraged through the Davos Consortium Technology Platform, we catalogue, evaluate, and match bankable global solutions tailored to Venezuela’s immediate needs

Actionable ecosystem & investment pipeline

The report bridges technical analysis with capital deployment.

Stakeholder Database: Mapped registries of key private corporations, industry federations and international partners.
Continuous Intelligence: Bi-weekly updates, regulatory briefings, and working sessions in Caracas and online for the diaspora.

WHY VENEZUELA

An unprecendented infrastructure & energy transition opportunity

Venezuela sits at a critical historical turning point. Decades of central grid underinvestment have created a massive power bottleneck across key economic sectors. Yet, this deficit presents one of the most compelling private-investment and energy-rebuild landscapes in the Americas.

Learn more about the opportunity

Pent-up industrial demand

Key export and productive sectors—including Oil & Gas, agribusiness, manufacturing, and mining—are operating far below capacity purely due to power limits. Restoring reliable energy generates immediate, bankable economic returns.

Abundant, Stranded Natural Energy Assets

Venezuela possesses world-class natural advantages: massive natural gas reserves (ideal for field gas-to-power generation), vast solar irradiation across productive regions, and dormant high-potential wind corridors.

First-Mover Market Advantage

Early movers in financing, technology, and equipment supply will capture market dominance in establishing the primary private energy ecosystem for Venezuela’s new economic era.

The Leapfrog Advantage (Off-Grid & Distributed Power)

Rather than waiting years for centralized grid rehabilitation, Venezuela is primed to leapfrog straight into modern Distributed Energy Resources (DERs). Private microgrids, Energy-as-a-Service (EaaS), and hybrid industrial generation represent the fastest-growing market for immediate deployment.
