As of August 2020 Chile had diverse sources of electric power: for the National Electric System, providing over 99% of the county's electric power, hydropower represented around 26.7% of its installed capacity, biomass 1.8%, wind power 8.8%, solar 12.1%, geothermal 0.2%, natural gas 18.9%, coal 20.3%, and petroleum-based capacity 11.3%. Prior to that time, faced with natural gas shortages, Chile began in 2007 to build its first liquefied natural gas terminal and re-gasification plant at Quintero near the capital city of Santiago to secure supply for its existing and upcoming gas-fired thermal plants. In addition, it had engaged in the construction of several new hydropower and coal-fired thermal plants. But by July 2020 91% of the new capacity under construction was of renewable power, 46.

  • El sector eléctrico en Chile se basa principalmente en la generación de energía térmica, hidroeléctrica y solar fotovoltaica. Tras los cortes del suministro de gas natural proveniente de Argentina, en 2007 Chile comenzó la construcción de su primera planta de gas natural licuado y planta de regasificación en Quintero para asegurar el suministro de sus plantas generadoras a gas. Además, se inició la construcción de nuevas centrales hidroeléctricas y a carbón. Asimismo, desde la creación del Ministerio de Energía en 2010, las políticas gubernamentales han ido enfocadas en la diversificación de la matriz energética, con un fuerte crecimiento exponencial en la generación de energías renovables en Chile, las que han convertido al país sudamericano en uno de los líderes mundiales en el uso de es (es)
