The Latin American and Caribbean Energy Organization (OLACDE), in its Monthly Electricity Generation Report, reported that in September 2025 electricity generation in the region reached 156 TWh, representing a year-on-year increase of 3.3%. Hydropower remained the main source of generation, accounting for 45.7% of the total, driven by improved hydrological conditions in several countries across the region.<\/p>\n

The report highlights that the Renewable Index reached 65%, recovering compared to the previous month, due to a higher share of clean energy sources and a reduction in natural gas-based generation, whose share declined to 24%. Solar energy recorded a monthly growth of 5%, associated with the commissioning of new photovoltaic installations, while generation from coal and other fossil fuels continued to decline.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the national level, 11 of OLACDE\u2019s 27 Member States exceeded the regional average for renewability, led by Paraguay and Uruguay (100%), Costa Rica (98%), Venezuela (92%), Ecuador (90%), Brazil (89%), Colombia (86%), El Salvador (79%), Belize (77%), Panama (74%), and Chile (70%). These results confirm the region\u2019s progress toward a cleaner, more resilient, and sustainable electricity matrix, with renewable energy as a central pillar of energy development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
