Conflictos socioambientales en los proyectos eléctricos en Chile (2005-2016): Un análisis configuracional

Abstract: Las últimas décadas han sido testigos de un crecimiento de los conflictos ambientales, en torno a proyectos de instalación de centrales energéticas de todo tipo. Según los casos, estos conflictos desembocaron en la construcción o el abandono del proyecto. La mayor parte de la literatura tiende a tratar estos casos de forma individual, sin caracterizar de forma sistemática la incidencia de los conflictos en la construcción o no de plantas eléctricas. En cambio, el artículo elabora un marco analítico para entend… Show more

“…Since the 70s, the country has been built upon extractivism and radical neoliberalism, first imposed by the military dictatorship and then consolidated by both the progressivist and right-wing governments that have alternated in power since the early 90s (Ruiz, 2019;Moulian, 1997). As such, Chilean environmental regulations are not as strict as in most OECD countries (OECD and UN ECLAC, 2016), and there are numerous socio-environmental conflicts throughout the territory straining economic, social and environmental initiatives (Bolados, 2016;INDH, 2018;Maillet and Albala, 2018). In this scenario, the relatively low proportion of people opposing more "green tape" in this group might reflect the fact that in Chile such regulations are so weak that they are perceived as seriously jeopardizing the environment, increasing social tensions and/or making the country less competitive in the global market.…”

“…A partir del estudio desarrollado por Maillet, & Albala (2018), se observaron conflictos socioambientales presentes en proyectos energéticos, y se precisa que el factor determinante para la caída de un proyecto energético son sus características intrínsecas y que las movilizaciones sociales por sí solas, sin necesidad de articularse con actores políticos convencionales, han logrado bloquear proyectos. Por lo anterior, toma mayor sentido la promoción de instancias de gobernanza en el SEIA, ya que cuando el proyecto decanta en un conflicto socioambiental se torna complejo cambiar la percepción en la comunidad, provocando retrasos en la obtención de su RCA o su inviabilidad concreta.…”

“…En Chile, se ha observado importantes reticencias por parte de comunidades en cuyos territorios se desea construir un proyecto energético; a su vez el titular o proponente del proyecto -agente privado-ha manifestado preocupación por lo complejo que se torna la ejecución de la inversión, mientras que los actores políticos han mostrado vacilaciones según el contexto de cada proyecto y según las dimensiones de la sustentabilidad que se afectan o benefician (Maillet & Albala, 2018). Esta situación genera conflictos socioambientales, pero también políticos, evidenciando que la institucionalidad ambiental no es capaz de encauzar el conflicto hacia un resultado legitimado por las partes en disputa.…”

“…A recent study about the Patagonia Without Dams movement shows how the concatenation of previous conflicts and a broad coalition of actors were able to block a mega-dam already approved by the SEIA [9]. Aware of this trend, Maillet and Albala [10] compared 26 energy projects that were facing opposition, finding that when a project exceeds 800 MW and the type of technology involved is polluting, such as coal, the opposition is more effective in blocking the projects.…”
