Chile, Uruguay and <a href=\"http:\/\/stage.dialogochino.net\/en\/climate-energy\/40807-costa-ricas-path-to-zero-emissions-transport-climate-change\/\">Costa Rica<\/a> are among those leading the way and have invested heavily in unconventional renewable energy in recent years.

Although considered a renewable source by many, hydropower projects are often associated with adverse impacts on people and biodiversity, involving large-scale deforestation and the relocation of communities who conserve forests. Moreover, their costs and construction typically overrun and changes in rainfall patterns mean that both their long-term reliability as an energy source and bankability as investments are far from assured.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The data, which was compiled by cross-checking information from state sources, operating companies, industrial guilds and press releases, is intended to serve as a reference point for those hoping to understand Latin American countries\u2019 progress in the clean energy transition. The information on the locations, financial backers and power sources helps build up a clearer picture of the main motors behind it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Latin America\u2019s renewable energy transition<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our map plots 850 non-hydro renewable energy plants in 24 Latin American and Caribbean countries for which we were able to collect data. For Brazil and Mexico, we set the minimum installed capacity for a project\u2019s inclusion in the dataset at 50MW, owing to the sheer number of smaller projects. Of our total, solar power accounts for 49% while 46% are wind. The remainder is geothermal. More than three-quarters of the projects are owned by private companies. Chile accounts for almost a quarter of all projects on our map (24%), followed by Brazil (21%), Mexico (14%) and Argentina (9%).&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over 80% of Chile\u2019s plants are solar. In Uruguay, wind accounts for the same share. Argentina has a more even distribution, with 60% wind and 40% solar. These three countries have seen a big push for renewable energy in recent years, including the inauguration of <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/stage.dialogochino.net\/en\/climate-energy\/23529-china-builds-latin-americas-largest-solar-plant\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cauchari<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, Latin America\u2019s largest solar plant &#8211; for now.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brazil\u2019s northeast is seemingly on the cusp a solar revolution, with seven projects with an installed capacity of 1GW or more in the pipeline, including a major cluster in Juazeiro, Bahia, which has ideal climatic conditions, and the largest, Aurora Energia\u2019s 5700MW plant in Matias Cardoso, Pernambuco. These are also located within the Caatinga biome.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<div class='block--pullout-stat block--pullout-stat--float cd-shortcode--factbox'>\n                <p class='block--pullout-stat__title'>86%<\/p>\n                <div class='block--pullout-stat__content'>\n                    <br \/>\nof finance for wind and solar projects in Brazil comes from the private sector<br \/>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Private capital is also leading the renewable energy transition in Brazil, financing 154, or 86%, of all projects. Only 8% of finance comes from state-owned companies \u2013 either Brazilian or Chinese. China is the only foreign country providing state finance to companies investing in solar and wind projects above 50MW in Brazil. In the Amazon region, Brazil has no projects of this size.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mexico has a large concentration of wind farms in the south of Oaxaca state and most farms are located in the <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/stage.dialogochino.net\/en\/climate-energy\/46334-yucatan-wind-farms-benefit-big-business-and-overlook-local-citizens\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yucat\u00e1n peninsula<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the eastern part of the country.

Despite high-levels of solar irradiation in such states as Sinaloa, there are no solar plants. Nor are there wind projects. In these states, governance is weak and security is a major concern.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Andean region\u2019s energy transition appears to be progressing slower than other Latin American sub-regions. Peru\u2019s Amazon has only one renewable energy plant; the Atalaya Photovoltaic Solar Power Plant, while all others are located on the southern coast of the country, in the desert that extends into Chile.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Set to be inaugurated in 2023, Bolivia\u2019s 100MW Laguna Colorada Geothermal Power Plant will be the largest renewable energy project in the country, generating 50% of the country\u2019s non-hydro renewable energy. All projects &#8211; operational or under construction &#8211; are in the hands of ENDE, Bolivia&#8217;s national electricity company.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Colombia has 38 projects under construction but only one currently operational wind plant, on the northern tip of La Guajira department. There have already been reported conflicts with<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/e360.yale.edu\/features\/in-colombia-indigenous-lands-are-ground-zero-for-a-wind-energy-boom\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> indigenous communities<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> over wind development in Colombia, which is set to expand considerably.
