What type of energy system does Bolivia use?

Similar to the country’s total energy system, the power sector relies heavily on natural gas (AEtN, 2016). The electricity network in Bolivia is broken into two classifications: the National Interconnected System (SIN) and the Isolated Systems (SAs).

Can solar PV reduce energy poverty in Bolivia?

These efficiency savings can be estimated to about 22%, 14%, and 26% for BPS-1, BPS-2, and BPS-3, respectively. Furthermore, large-scale development of solar PV, particularly in off-grid communities, can serve to reduce energy poverty in Bolivia (Sovacool, 2012).

Does Bolivia have a long-term energy plan?

As previously mentioned, the Bolivian government does not provide any long-term energy planning study, however, the UNFCC (2015b) states that RE will compose 81% of electricity generation by 2030. Bolivia’s scenario for 2027 according to MHE (2009) states that biomass sources will comprise 8% of total final energy demand.

What will be Bolivia's energy transition?

This transition for Bolivia would be driven by solar PV based electricity and high electrification across all energy sectors.

Should Bolivia use solar energy to generate synthetic fuels?

Using Bolivia’s own excellent solar resources to generate synthetic fuels in BPS-1 and BPS-2 would result in energy independence and security. Due to the lack of GHG emission costs in BPS-3 fuel costs remain for the fossil fuels used in the heat and transport sectors. Fig. 23.
