Historically, one of the most critical barriers to Venezuela's reconstruction has been access to reliable electricity. However, following the twin earthquakes on June 24, the situation has taken a drastic turn. The catastrophe has deepened the complex humanitarian crisis, especially in the north-central axis of the country, transforming electrical recovery into an urgent and unavoidable humanitarian and economic emergency.
For VZ Economics, the goal of restoring the electrical system remains as relevant as ever, though it now demands a sharper approach. Investments must be agile and assertive to optimize the service in the most economical way possible and in the shortest feasible time frame for both communities and productive sectors.
The No Más Apagones (No More Blackouts) initiative seeks to change this reality through practical, short-term solutions. As a first step, this begins with a comprehensive assessment of the current state of infrastructure and electricity consumption among Venezuelan economic actors.
By completing this brief survey (under 10 minutes), you will help us diagnose consumption habits and the critical needs of key economic sectors—ranging from large-scale industries by region to micro-businesses. This data will serve as the foundation for the Baseline Electrification Report, a technical starting point to restore energy stability to the country.
Your participation offers immediate value:
Exclusive Access: You will receive executive summaries, periodic research updates, and electrification best-practice guides.
Visibility and Promotion Platform: We will evaluate the possibility of highlighting your company’s or association's projects and initiatives in our upcoming events and institutional channels, actively supporting their promotion.
Global Networking: You will have the opportunity to become part of the exclusive network of the Altru Institute, a think tank with strategic connections to the World Economic Forum and global corporations.
Venezuela has the potential to overcome the crisis, leave the blackouts behind, and switch on the power needed for its reconstruction. The first step begins with your diagnosis: real information about what is happening, what works, and what does not within the Venezuelan business landscape.
