What is the energy mix of Paraguay?

También disponible en Español. The energy mix of the Republic of Paraguay is dominated by clean energy sources, where hydropower accounts for the largest share of the country’s power generation, representing around 99.5% of the installed power capacity.

Can Paraguay use natural gas as a transitional energy source?

In addition to its focus on renewables, Paraguay is also looking to natural gas as a transitional energy source. The country’s new energy policy includes a project to integrate natural gas into its energy matrix. This would provide a reliable alternative to hydrocarbons while renewable technologies continue to scale.

How can Paraguay benefit from solar energy?

Solar energy, in particular, is seen as a vital addition, taking advantage of Paraguay’s abundant sunlight to reduce pressure on its hydropower resources. The government also plans to harness bioenergy through biomass and biogases, tapping into organic waste and agricultural byproducts as fuel sources.

How is energy used in Paraguay?

Total energy supply (TES) includes all the energy produced in or imported to a country, minus that which is exported or stored. It represents all the energy required to supply end users in the country.

What is Paraguay's energy policy?

The policy is expected to enhance Paraguay’s energy resilience, foster innovation, and contribute to global sustainability goals. Paraguay has long been known for its reliance on renewable energy. Nearly 100% of its electricity is generated from hydropower, mainly through the Itaipu and Yacyretá dams.

Does Paraguay need to diversify its energy mix?

Paraguay sees the need to encourage the diversification of its energy mix through the adoption of renewable energy and net zero technologies.
