Ecuador's natural gas market is less developed than its oil sector; it has a 0.9% share of total energy production and 1.7% share of energy consumption (Figure 1). Natural gas in Ecuador is mostly used by the industry sector1.
Ecuador has the potential to provide the entire country with completely self-produced energy. Ecuador currently supplies 117% of its own usage needs and continues to trade energy resources with other countries. As of 2016, Ecuador was consuming 22.68 billion kWh of electricity.
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.
Ecuador's Plan Nacional de Eficiencia Energética 2016-2035 aims to promote energy efficiency and the development of renewables. In October 2020, Ecuador joined the EITI (Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative) to promote accountability and be more transparent regarding their natural resources and earned revenue.
Natural gas in Ecuador is mostly used by the industry sector1. Hydropower in Ecuador is a significant source of electricity generation given the country’s geographical features, such as the Andes Mountains and the Amazon rainforest. Hydropower accounted for 79.1% of total electricity generation in 2021, up from 55.4% in 2011.2 Figure 1.
