6 FAQs about [Argentina energy storage solar]

How much energy is used in energy-intensive industries in Argentina?

Today, around 45% of energy used in energy-intensive industries is natural gas: energy-intensive industries account for 60% of total energy demand in industry in Argentina. Industrial activity in Argentina sees less growth than the average in the region. Most of this modest increase is met by natural gas and electricity in the STEPS.

What is the contribution of photovoltaic electricity to Argentina's grid system?

The first contribution of photovoltaic electricity to Argentina´s grid system occurred in 2011, with a participation of 0.0014% to the total electricity demand, which is a modest contribution to the 1% incidence of renewable energy (RE) at the time, which included small, i.e., ≤50 MW, hydroelectric plants .

Can Argentina abridge the solar gap?

Finally, a discussion on the main ingredients required to abridge Argentina’s solar gap indicates that stronger, consistent long-term strategies are required in Argentina in order to take advantage of the present window of opportunity, and to play a considerable role in the global energy transition.

Does Argentina have a potential for solar energy utilization?

Conclusions Our work found a large gap between Argentina’s potential for solar energy utilization and the current solar energy deployment, despite advantages such as a high solar and land resources.

Is there a gap between solar and solar energy deployment in Argentina?

Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. There is a large gap between the vast solar resources and the magnitude of solar energy deployment in Argentina. In the case of photovoltaics, the country only reached the 1000 GWh electricity generated yearly landmark in 2020.

Why is solar thermal technology less developed in Argentine?

Solar thermal technology is even less developed, in part due to the low natural gas prices resulting from political strategies that aim to soften the impact of an unstable economy on family budgets. This review describes this gap by summarizing the current state of Argentine solar energy.
