Abstract

Historically, the need to meet the growing demand for energy, coupled with technological advances in the field of energy infrastructures, has been the cause of various territorial transformations in the world. In the 21st century, in order to compensate for shortfalls in the energy system, Argentina bets on non-conventional energy projects -renewable and non-renewable- by introducing state incentives. This triggers a new dynamism not only in areas where there are resources, but also in those which provide the inputs, infrastructure and services required for their use. By means of a mixed methodology of quantitative-qualitative nature, using documentary and statistical sources, this paper seeks to examine territorial transformations induced by changes in energy networks, focusing on the study of the port area of Bahia Blanca-Coronel Rosales. The competitive advantages in port infrastructure and services offered by the analyzed area make it a strategic logistical node against current demands.
