This research study examines the current status of green energy-specific financial literacy in Latin America, exploring the relationship between financial knowledge and investment decision-making in renewable energy. The study indicates that while Latin America has made tremendous strides in the uptake of renewable energy, with the region increasing its renewable capacity by 51% between 2015 and 2022, there remains a significant gap in financial literacy specific to green energy investments. The findings project that enhancing green energy financial literacy can significantly accelerate the region's transition to sustainable energy systems and assist in reaching the net-zero goals of 15 Latin American countries. The report concludes with a recommendation to policy makers, financial institutions, and educational institutions to introduce tailored financial literacy programs that address green energy investment knowledge gaps in the region.
