1. General energy sector Institutional strengthening: creation of the Ministry of Energy, Hydrocarbons, and Mining (MEHM) by 2024, followed by a plan to strengthen it and the public companies in the sector by 2025. Energy efficiency: creation of the Paraguayan Energy Efficiency Agency (public-private partnership) by 2030.
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.
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.
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.
