The South American Energy Council is a body set up to co-ordinate the regional energy policy of the Union of South American Nations.[1] Its establishment was agreed at the first South American Energy Summit, which took place on April 16–17 2007 on Isla Margarita in the Venezuelan state of Nueva Esparta.[2] It was officially created in May 2010 during the UNASUR's Extraordinary Summit in Los Cardales, Argentina.[3]

In 2012, the Council started to draft a South American Energy Treaty. Before drafting this treaty, the Council coordinated the creation of an energy balance and a 15-point strategy.[3]
