6 FAQs about [Paraguay grid booster]

Does Paraguay need to expand its power system?

Also, we estimated the annual revenues for the government of Paraguay and Itaipu through its electricity exports to Brazil. We find that Paraguay needs to expand the capacity of its power system, mainly by investing in hydropower plants, to cover its future electricity needs and sustain national electricity export levels.

Who controls the electricity market in Paraguay?

The National Electricity Administration ( Administración Nacional de Electricidad, ANDE), Paraguay's state-owned utility, controls the country's entire electricity market, including generation, transmission and distribution.

Why is strategic energy planning important in Paraguay?

The electricity demand projections analyzed emphasize the importance of strategic energy planning. Even though Paraguay has overcapacity in the power system to supply domestic electricity demand, the generation capacity needs to be expanded in the future.
