In September 2025, LAC achieved a total electricity generation of 156 TWh, the second lowest figure in 2025 after February.
Hydropower is the most widely used resource for electricity generation in LAC, accounting for 45.7% of the total, an increase from 43.6% in August, thanks to improved hydrological conditions in the region.
Electricity generation from natural gas experienced a drop in its share, from 26.1% in August to 24% in September, in response to the recovery of hydroelectric generation. Other sources that experienced a decline were coal and other fossil fuels.
The renewability index in LAC electricity generation registered 65%, recovering from the drop in August, which reached 63%. This recovery in renewability is mainly explained by the decline in electricity demand in the region, which led to lower electricity production from natural gas, while hydroelectric generation experienced a certain recovery, thanks to improved water flow levels.
