6 FAQs about [Bolivia energy environment solutions]
How can Bolivia improve energy production?
Bolivia continues to make efforts to upgrade the infrastructure needed for renewable energy production. The National Interconnected System (SIN), which the government has put in place, aims to improve the nation’s capacity for producing electricity by building additional power plants, transmission lines and substations.
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).
What can Bolivia do to improve the environment?
On energy, the country aims to increase electricity generation capacity through renewable energies for local and regional development. On forests, Bolivia plans to increase the capacity for mitigation and adaptation through the sustainable management of forests.
What are the potential development scenarios for the Bolivian energy system?
