Naperville, IL -- (SBWire) -- 08/22/2013 --Reportstack, provider of premium market research reports announces the addition of Argentina Renewables Report Q4 2013 market report to its offering
We believe the fact that there was only one bid placed for the contract to undertake the latest
expansion of the Arauco I wind power plant is indicative of the current investment climate within
Argentina's renewables industry. We maintain our view that, despite an encouraging policy and regulatory
framework for renewables, the financial uncertainty relating to power projects and an increasingly
unappealing and challenging business environment are likely to deter the more cautious of investors.
In an attempt to develop the country's non-hydropower renewables sector, the Argentine government
introduced a target in 2007, which stated that 8% of electricity demand should be met by renewable
generation by 2016. Alongside this, the government implemented a Feed-in-Tariff (FiT) programme and a
policy known as GENREN. However, despite the keen focus on expanding its renewables industry, we
believe that Argentina will not fulfil the proposed targets. Instead we forecast non-hydro renewables to
contribute just over 3% to the total electricity generation mix by the end of our forecast period in 2022.
