Ecuador's power space has long been dominated by hydropower and oil-based generation. According to IRENA's latest data (for 2017), almost 80% of the country's energy supply was from oil and about 16% from renewables, with almost all of this from hydro supplemented with a small contribution from bioenergy.
In 2022, Ecuador's generation capacity was 8,864 MW, of which 5,425 MW (61 percent) corresponded to renewable energy and 3,438 MW (39 percent) to non-renewable energy sources (fossil fuels derived from oil and natural gas).
“As of 2019, with an installed capacity of 26.7 MW solar PV formed a negligible portion of Ecuador's capacity mix,” comments Somik Das, Senior Power Analyst at GlobalData. “Going ahead, GlobalData notes that growth in solar capacity is anticipated to see an expansion, seeing cumulative installed capacity of more than 4GW by 2030.”
The Energy Ministry released tenders in 2021 for a 500 MW renewable block (wind, biomass, solar), 400 MW Natural Gas Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCCP), and a Northeast Transmission System to supply the Ecuadorian oil system. The Energy Ministry has not yet awarded the contracts.
Electricity demand grows by 200 MW every year, meaning Ecuador should add 250 MW or 300 MW of new power generation each year. However, Ecuador has added minimal additional generation in the last three years.
GlobalData points out that in the more pessimistic scenario, the growth of Ecuador's solar segment over the decade sits at around 8-9%. This scenario highlights an extremely shunted growth of the solar segment in the country, which would mean that the segment would be considerably smaller compared to the other technologies up to around mid-decade.
