Aconcagua Energía, which is less than 10 years old, grew up in the country operating small, low-cost oil fields. Two months ago it bought an electrical company and is interested in the commercialization of gas.

The firm aims to buy some assets that YPF will soon put up for sale, and is betting on the deregulations of the electricity and gas markets that Javier Milei plans together with the Secretary of Energy, Eduardo Rodríguez Chirillo and his advisor Federico Sturzenegger.
