6 FAQs about [Solar utility grid Paraguay]

What is the Atlas of the solar and wind energy potential of Paraguay?

The Atlas of the solar and wind energy potential of Paraguay is one of the tools developed by Itaipu to make visible data of great relevance for developers of these technologies interested in new generation projects in this country. That document reflects a promising future for solar technology.

Who has the monopoly for electricity in Paraguay?

The national public utility (ANDE) had the monopoly for electricity in Paraguay (Law 966/64) until 2006, when Law 3009/06 on independent producers allowed for independent generation and transport of electricity for national consumption or export. This included generators from renewable energy resources except from hydropower plants larger than 2MW.

What is Paraguay's energy policy?

Policy In November 2014 Paraguay launched a process to design the National Energy Policy. The process, which is expected to last until November 2015, will define Paraguay’s energy mix in the short, medium and long-term (25 years) and considers electricity, oil, gas and “all alternative energies”.

Why is Paraguay a renewable country?

Paraguay has one of the highest proportions of renewable energy in South America. Hydropower constitutes around 99.5% of the installed electricity capacity. This makes it highly dependent on the rivers that feed the country’s main hydroelectric plants, from where most of the electricity produced is exported to neighboring countries.

What is the energy potential of Alto Paraguay?

This map denotes considerable potential throughout the territory, with a positive trend towards the north of the country, registering maximum figures that are between 1850 and 2000 kWh / m²-year, especially between the departments of Alto Paraguay, Boquerón, Concepción, Amambay, San Pedro, Canindeyú and Alto Paraná.

Why is Paraguay an inefficient exporter?

Paraguay holds the rare title of the world’s largest exporter of electrical energy, but many argue that it is an inefficient exporter because the compensation it obtains is much lower than the market price of energy; at the same time as an inefficient consumer because it uses a very low amount of its installed hydroelectric capacity.
