According to a UNEP report, replacing this fuel with renewable energy could create over 93,000 jobs in Panama by 2050, or 133,000 if part of the technology was built locally. If Panama switched to entirely renewable energy, carbon dioxide emissions could fall by 91 per cent by 2050, also reducing Panama''s energy costs by US$22 billion.
It brings us great pride to be one of the first and main investors in the energy sector in Panama, where we have worked to anticipate the energy needs of future generations in the country and have invested more than USD $2,640 Million since 1998 to transform needs into solutions. Add 2-3 GW of wind, solar and energy storage per year. Reduce
Panama has a storage capacity of 29.8 million barrels of oil, according to the latest report from the country''s National Energy Secretariat. The Fuel Free Zone (ZLC by its initials in Spanish) Petroterminal de Panama occupies almost half of the total capacity, through its two tank estates: Charco Azul in Chiriqui, which has a capacity of 7.5 million barrels, and
The National Energy Secretariat of Panama has launched an energy auction aimed at contracting power for the 2025-30 period. The Panamanian authorities will hold the procurement exercise before Dec. 10, allowing power producers to compete in two categories: contracting power and providing capacity, with contracts lasting up to 60 months.

Being the first country in the region to include energy storage in renewable energy development, the government believes that energy storage is of prime importance to its goal of contributing 5 percent of the total demand capacity by 2030 with energy storage. Panama is considered as a potential market for solar PV investments in Central America
Panama expects total energy demand to more than double between 2017 and 2030 (+113%), with peak demand growing from 1.6 GW to 3.5 GW. Panama is currently connected to Costa Rica via a 300 MW transmission line. A 400 MW high-voltage direct current (HVDC) interconnector with Colombia is expected to be commissioned by 2022.
Panama has taken part in power sector activities under the Clean Energy Corridor Central America (CECCA), for which it is a pilot country. Country experts expect to use the FlexTool in scenarios and studies by ETESA, CND and SNE.
The FlexTool engagement process for Panama started in October 2017, with a set of discussions during training on power grid studies with large shares of solar and wind.
