FRAMEWORK AND HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
• Uruguay has:
- no oil
- no natural gas
- no coal
• Almost no space for new large hydropower plants (75% of
present electric mix)
• Historically: Short term energy policies

ENERGY POLICY 2008 - 2030
ENERGY POLICY 2030
2008: Council of Ministers
2010: Special Committee
including all Political Parties
• Four strategic guidelines
• Short, medium and long term goals
• More than 40 working areas
Multidimensional and integrated vision, including technological,
economic, geopolitical, environmental, ethical and social factors
STRATEGIC GUIDELINES
Energy Policy – Strategic Guidelines
Institutional axis:
State’s role as policy director
 The Executive shall define and lead the energy
policy, and coordinates the participation of the
different stakeholders
 Leading, efficient and dynamic State owned
companies as the main mechanism for
implementing the public policies
 Regulated participation of private entreprenours
under the conditions defined by the Executive
 Clear and stable regulatory framework
 Independent regulatory body as a guarantee for
businesses and consumers
Energy Policy – Strategic Guidelines
Supply axis:
Diversification with strong national
component
Leads & Prospect
 Reduce oil imports dependency
 Increase the participation of indigenous
sources
 Increase the participation of renewable
energy sources particularly non-traditional
ones (with no subsidies)
 Search of indigenous fossil fuels
 Promote national participation, capacity
building and local employment
 Promote environmental care

Energy
Policy – Strategic
Guidelines
Demand axis:
Promoting Energy Efficiency
 Encourage energy efficiency in all areas of
activity (construction, industry, transport) and
for all the energy sources
 State as the prime example of change
 Promote new consumer practices at all
education levels
 Encourage the creation of domestic ESCOs
Energy Policy – Strategic Guidelines
Social axis:
Energy as a Human Right
 Adequate
energy
access
(security and price) for all sectors
of society and all geographic
locations
 Energy as an instrument for
social integration
 Ensure adequate information to all
stakeholders
WHAT HAVE WE DONE
SO FAR?
BUILDING THE
APPROPRIATE FRAMEWORK
INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK
• All political parties support the present
Energy Policiy
• Strong development of the office in charge
of Energy Policies
• Role of main actors strengthened by law
• New developments (strong investments) in ANCAP (National
Oil Company) and UTE (Public Utility)
• Recent Laws and Decrees
BUILDING CAPACITIES
• Energy planning capacities
• End-use energy survey:
200 homogeneous groups
• Measurements and potential maps
(wind, solar, biomass, cogeneration, saving)
• Graduate Courses in Energy (Universidad de la República)
• R&D Energy Fund: 2.6 MMUS$ / year (ANII)
• Investment Promotion Law (EE and RE tax incentives)
EXPECTED INVESTMENTS
(2011-2015)
6.2 billion dollars (16% of GDP)
• 2.4 billion public sector
• 3.8 billion private sector or public-private parternship
ENERGY DIVERSIFICATION
Why renewables?
• To keep low carbon emissions
• To avoid fossil fuel imports
• To drop and stabilize energy prices (no subsidies)
• To build local capacities
To improve energy sovereingty
WIND ENERGY
• First wind farms installed (4% of average power demand)
•Tender processes: 62 US$/MWh (no subsidies),
up to 44% domestic participation
• 600 MW installed by 2014 (55% of average demand) , 0 MW in 2007
BIOMASS (POWER AND HEAT)
• 8 power plants installed:16% of average power demand,
up to 60% domestic participation
• Feed-in-tariff (no subsidies)
• Waste-to-energy program in progress
SOLAR
• Heat water capacities replacement (Public Utility)
• 1MWp power PV pilot capacity
GRID-CONNECTED MICROGENERATION
• Uruguay: first country in Latin America to enable gridconnected microgeneration
•“Net metering”

• Both Uruguay and Argentina´s demands
• Operation beginning: 2014
ENERGY EFFICIENCY POLICIES
(HIGHLIGHTS)
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
• EE promotion law
• National EE Master Plan
• Labels
• Audits
• EE Garantee Fund
• Energy saving credits
(boosting EE investments)
• Tax redefinition
• Public sector (audits, managers, plans,
lamps, labels, transportation)
• Wide educational and cultural program

SOCIAL POLICIES IN
THE ENERGY SECTOR
(HIGHLIGHTS)
SOCIAL ENERGY POLICIES
• Special electricity tariff
• Special LPG tariff
• Public transport subsidy
• Pilot energy acces programs for less favored neighborhoods
(education, improve final energy choice, better energy use)
• 100% electrification plan

EXPLORATION
GENERAL CONDITIONS
• Fields and extracted substances are State property
• The Executive sets the policies and rules related to
exploration and exploitation of hydrocarbons
• ANCAP, the National Oil Company, signs with the IOC the
Exploration-Exploitation Contract
• The IOC will access through competitive biddings or direct
contracting, depending on the areas of interest:
– OFFSHORE: Bidding rounds
– ONSHORE: Direct Negotiation–Open door system
URUGUAY ROUND I
In December 2008 Uruguay launched “Uruguay Round I”, a
call for bids for awarding areas for exploration and
exploitation of oil and gas offshore Uruguay.
