This work deals with the analysis of energy integration projects in the South America, in particular, in South American Common Market and its associated countries Bolivia and Chile.The thesis aims to identify the social and the economic motivations that stimulated the following three prominent projects in the region: Itaipu Binacional, Gasbol and Gasandes.The research thesis was that those projects were carried out taking as reference the capitalist accumulation, despite they were developed in diverse historical contexts.To carry out the research was chosen a methodological approach which puts the projects into an historical context and identifies, by means of the analysis, which were the sectors of the society that received the main economic benefits and which was the participation of the States in each case.The study concluded that in the projects analyzed, even having different levels of participation of the States, the reproduction of the capital was the main motivation of the projects.So, the international and national capitals had their profits guaranteed, but the risks and the financial losses were transferred to the state-owned or public companies or to the population.The forms to guarantee the private accumulation were different and depend on the historical context of each project.In the Itaipu project, for instance, the companies were benefited with high value contracts and with low tariffs of electricity (for huge consumers).Besides, the financial management of the debt permitted huge transferences from Itaipu to the financial system.In the cases of Gasbol and Gasandes the model of organization of the projects permitted benefits to the companies.The risks or financial losses were assumed by Petrobras, in the first case, and by the population, in the second case
