The government of Argentina has announced the nation's first public tender for renewable energy since 2019.
The call for bids was published in the official gazette, under Resolution 36/2023. Winning bids will get 15-year supply contracts with Cammesa, the company that manages the country’s wholesale electricity market.
The call is for a total of 620 MW of power, divided into two parts. The first line is for regional and provincial projects that allow substitution for a maximum power of 500 MW, with a focus on biomass, PV with and without storage, and wind power with storage.
The second part of the tender is for projects that allow the incorporation of small-scale renewables generation, up to a maximum capacity of 120 MW. It will focus on biomass, biogas, landfill biogas, and small hydroelectric uses.
In 2019, Argentina held the third round of its “RenovAr” public tender, with a minimum price of $54.22/MWh.
