Hydroelectric
• This is the most important removable energy
source in Argentina. It represents 3,8% of total
consumption of renewable energy sources in
the country.
• Only three plants provides 50% of the total
hydraulic energy in Argentina, these are:
Yacyretà, Salto Grande and Piedra del Aguila.
The other 50% are supply by other 5 plants.

WIND POWER
• The most important
region in Argentina for
producing
wind
energy is Patagonia
and has a potential
production of 5000
MW.
• There are installed 17
wind
farm
that
generate 29,7MW.

SOLAR POWER
The main area of
solar irradiation in
Argentina is NOA
(4-5 KwH/m2/d)
and it varies
according the
different season.

In Argentina Ministry of
Agriculture and INTA have
been identified biomasic
resources by a total of 124M
tons that can be used to
produce energy

POLICY ON BIOFUELS
LAW 26.093/2006: PROMOTES THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF BIOFUELS
Mandatory use 10% bioethanol and 10% biodiesel
Definition of domestic prices for biofuels
Quality standards
Law 26,90/2006, establishes that, by 2016, 8% of national electricity consumption
should be supplied by renewable sources, including biomass.
The law prioritizes projects that accomplish the following criteria:
Sponsored by small and medium sized companies.
Belong to farming producers.
Located in regional and rural economies.

Program to promote the use of
biomass for energy production in
Argentina
Implemented by the Government of Argentina
through the Ministries of Agriculture and Energy,
with technical assistance from FAO.
The main objective of this program is to promote the
development of bioenergy at the regional and
national level, in order to supply clean, reliable and
competitive energy.

BIOGAS
There are public and
private institutions
working
on
the
development
of
biogas technology at
different stages and
scales.
In Argentina there are
same initiatives to
produce biogas from
landfills in Región
Pampeana (CEAMSE, Mar
del Plata, Rosario y
Córdoba).

CONCLUSIONS
• Argentina has ideal growing conditions for the sustained
development of the raw materials needed for the production of
biofuels.
• Argentina has immediate availability of the raw material needed to
cover the mandatory use in all gasoline and diesel consumption.
• There is a big potential to develop the biogas technologies in
Argentina.
• There are real interest of the Government of Argentina to establish
technical cooperation with other countries in the bioenergy sector
in various areas, such as, capacity building, exchange of
information and technicians among others.
