Abstract
This study takes a multisectoral approach to analyze the projected changes in the energy generation matrix of the Dominican Republic by the year 2035. It examines various scenarios that emphasize the transition from fossil fuel-dominated electricity generation to a more sustainable energy system with a greater reliance on non-fossil sources. The main objective is to explore the potential impacts of this transition within the country's energy context, greenhouse gas emissions, and sustainable development and climate change mitigation goals. By integrating data from reliable sources such as CEPAL, Eora, Our World in Data, and the Coordinating Body, the study aims to provide a comprehensive view of the evolution of the energy sector, considering interactions and repercussions across various sectors. The purpose is to offer valuable insights for policy formulation, strategic planning, and investment decisions in the energy sector, aligning the analysis with global efforts towards greener economies and the national strategy for a sustainable energy future.
