Resumen
Los Andes septentrionales argentinos se posicionan estratégicamente en la transición energética. En la provincia de Jujuy, se multiplican proyectos solares y mineros, de escala diversa. Iniciativas orientadas a satisfacer pequeñas demandas y reducir situaciones de pobreza energética, se focalizan en poblaciones dispersas y grupos de bajos ingresos. Megaparques fotovoltaicos en planicies de alta montaña, y minas de litio en los salares, introducen impactos profundos en comunidades locales y en paisajes de alto valor cultural y natural. El objetivo del trabajo es explorar las materialidades de la transición energética en espacios andinos, examinando las experiencias en curso en la provincia de Jujuy. El análisis pone en perspectiva resultados de investigación obtenidos en trabajos de terreno. Estos permitieron el acercamiento a proyectos, construcciones, actores y estrategias energéticas. Observación directa, entrevistas semiestructuradas, registros fotográficos y revisión de bibliografía, sostienen las reflexiones en torno a la materialidad y espacialidad de los proyectos. Diversas experiencias co-evolucionan en los territorios jujeños. Con fines extractivos, productivos y/o de servicio, ellas muestran las oportunidades que se abren en Jujuy, fábrica de territorios energéticos a geometría variable.
The northern Argentinian Andes are strategically positioned in the energy transition. In the province of Jujuy, solar and mining projects of diverse scale are multiplying. Initiatives aimed at satisfying small demands and reducing energy poverty focus their efforts on dispersed populations and low-income groups. Large-scale photovoltaic power plants in high mountain plains, and lithium mines in salt flats introduce profound impacts on local communities, and on landscapes of high cultural and natural value. The paper aims to explore the materialities of the energy transition in Andean spaces, examining experiences in progress in the province of Jujuy. The analysis puts research results obtained in fieldwork missions into perspective. Fieldwork has enabled contact with projects, constructions, actors, and energy strategies. Direct observation, semi-structured interviews, photographic records, and bibliographic review support the reflections on the materiality and spatiality of the projects. Diverse experiences co-evolve in the territories of Jujuy. For extractive, productive, and service purposes, they show the opportunities that open up in Jujuy, a factory of energy territories of variable geometry.
