Based on what has been described, it is identified that there is a high potential for electricity generation in Ecuador, especially the types of projects and specific places to start them up by the central state and radicalize the energy transition.
He emphasized that the decision-making process was transparent and competitive, with Karpowership emerging as the best option due to their comprehensive proposal and capability to meet the urgent needs of Ecuador’s energy sector.
In June 2024, amidst the electricity crisis, the state-owned Corporación Eléctrica de Ecuador (CELEC) launched five tenders to contract 438 megawatts of new electricity generation, with a reference budget of $498 million, to be installed between September 2024 and February 2025.
This becomes an important strategic component within the Ecuadorian electricity production system. However, analyzed source by source, the greatest contribution is hydroelectric with 5064.16 MW of effective power of the total of 5254.95 MW, which implies 96.36% of the total renewable energy.
The Ecuadorian electricity sector is considered strategic due to its direct influence with the development productive of the country. In Ecuador for the year 2020, the generation capacity registered in the national territory was 8712.29 MW of NP (nominal power) and 8095.25 MW of PE (Effective power). The generation sources are presented in Table 1.
