6 FAQs about [Panama energy storage solar]

Does Panama have solar power?

Since 2014, investments in solar and wind energy have grown markedly. Today, more than two-thirds of Panama’s electricity generation comes from clean sources, primarily through the contribution of hydropower. The country also has the largest wind farm in the region, and solar power generation – although still modest – has begun to take of rapidly.

How much solar power does Panama have in 2023?

According to the latest statistics from the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), Panama had around 570 MW of installed PV capacity at the end of 2023. It installed around 40 MW of new solar last year. This content is protected by copyright and may not be reused.

How much electricity does Panama need?

At the same time, electricity demand in the country has continued to increase, reaching a peak demand of over 1 600 megawatts (MW) in 2015. To meet this growth, Panama introduced wind and solar photovoltaic (PV) energy in 2013, which reached 270 MW and 90 MW of installed capacity by 2016, respectively.

What challenges do solar and wind companies face in Panama?

Despite abundant renewable energy resources, solar and wind companies in Panama face economic challenges, given that the current power market model is based on conventional sources such as thermal and hydropower generation and does not recognise the unique operating characteristics of variable renewable energy (VRE) generation.

Are solar auctions legal in Panama?

Law 44 of 2011 created wind-specific auctions, as well as accelerated depreciation on wind equipment and tax exemption for up to 15 years for wind equipment producers based in Panama. Law 37 of 2013 established solar-specific auctions in Panama, along with accelerated depreciation on solar energy equipment (ASEP, 2017).

What are the main sources of electricity in Panama?

The largest source in the electricity mix is hydropower, followed by thermal generation (oil products and coal). Wind and solar power came on line in 2013, and by 2016 Panama had 270 MW of installed wind power capacity and 90 MW of installed solar power capacity (SNE, 2015).
