Abstract
The transformation in the electric energy sector in South America began in 1982, when Chile formalized an electric power reorganization. Argentina followed suit in 1992, then Peru in 1993, Bolivia and Colombia in 1994, and finally, Brazil and Venezuela. This article discusses the restructuring of power sectors in South America and Europe, and gives a viewpoint on the computerized grid-control needed in the new deregulated regimes
