Energy-Storage.news reported as the company broke ground on that project in October 2020. AES'' track record in the country is even more historic for the energy storage industry: the world''s first grid-connected large-scale lithium-ion battery storage system was deployed by the company to increase the efficiency of a Chilean coal power plant as early as
In 2021, Ecuador had 5.3 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity. The plan''s goals include adding approximately 1.4 GW of new renewable energy capacity to the national grid by 2031. To help realize that goal, the government is offering a 100% income tax exemption for certain new investments in renewable energy.
Between 2008 and 2017, Ecuador''s electricity generation capacity expanded significantly, with an investment of approximately USD 8150 million into harnessing the potential energy of water. This led to the construction of five high-capacity hydroelectric projects by 2017, contributing 33.4% of the sector''s energy output by 2023. However, it

For the year 2020, Ecuador''s energy production reached 27,120 GWh [23], which represents a reduction of 2.21% compared to the previous year; Seen from another perspective, 90.72% of the energy originated from clean sources; with an indisputable first place of hydroelectric participation (98.37%), and a percentage distribution of non
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.
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.
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.
In Ecuador, biomass is primarily produced from sugar cane, African palm, and rice husks. Ecuador’s government released the Electricity Master Plan 2019, which outlines a series of planned projects to meet the country's electricity demand and encourage private investment. In 2021, Ecuador had 5.3 gigawatts (GW) of renewable energy capacity.
