At the present stage of the modern society development energy security becomes increasingly important for both individual states and the whole world. Therefore it is logical that states are establishing increasingly close cooperation to ensure energy security in the framework of existing regional organizations. The article describes examples of cooperation in the energy sector within the framework of major regional associations that exist in North and South America, such as North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the Organization of American States, the Caribbean Community (CARICOM), the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC). This study is particularly relevant as the analyzed organizations unite both developed and developing countries. The cooperation experience of the American States in the energy sector may also be useful in the context that there are a number of regional organizations in the Eurasian region which also pay considerable attention to the issues of energy security, energy efficiency and environmental protection.
