Technical FAQs 4

Does Uruguay have solar power?

Legislative support for solar power has existed since 2013 and the total installed capacity of distributed solar generation reached 270 MW in 2022. Uruguay receives an average 1,700 KW per square meter of sunlight a year, on a par with Mediterranean countries although solar represents only a fraction of the country’s total electricity production.

What type of energy is used in Uruguay?

"Uruguay Energy". Today, over 98 percent of Uruguay's electricity is generated from hydro, wind, solar, and biomass ^ Cernuischi, F.; González, F.; Morales Demarco, M.; Marmisolle, J.; Conti, B.; Bossi, J. (2018).

Is wind power a good investment in Uruguay?

Significant investments in wind power over the last decade have led to an increased share of this technology, which has now surpassed hydropower in terms of installed capacity and constitutes more than half of Uruguay’s renewable energy capacity (IRENA, 2019g). National policy had a strong influence on these developments.

Will Uruguay get 95% of its electricity from renewables?

"Uruguay has shifted to getting 95% of its electricity from renewables in less than 10 years". ScienceAlert. Archived from the original on 16 February 2016. Retrieved 18 February 2016.
