Moving forward with the ambitious program for fostering investments in the renewable energies field, the Argentine Federal Government has just launched a new open national and international call for tender.<\/p>\n

This new program is aimed to produce 1,200 GW of renewable energies (550 MW of Eolic, 450 MW of solar, 100 MW of biomass, and 100 of biogas and mini hydroelectric).<\/p>\n

RenovAr Round 2 has the following cap prices for each type of energy in USD \/ MW: 56.25 for eolic, 57.04 for solar, 110 for biomass, 160 for biogas, 130 for landfill gas, and 105 for small hydroelectric.<\/p>\n

The World Bank\u00b4s guarantee for RenovAr Round 2 is of USD 250 million. This guarantee will cover potential events of default of the buyer, the Wholesale Electric Market Management Company (Compa\u00f1\u00eda Administradora del Mercado El\u00e9ctrico Mayorista<\/em>\u00a0or CAMMESA by its Spanish Acronym).<\/p>\n

Consistent with the prior call for tenders of the RenovAr program (Rounds 1 and 1.5), the bidders will have to show a minimum net worth of USD 250,000 per each MW of offered power.<\/p>\n

The request for proposals documents have also been approved by the Resolution Number 275-E\/2017 and will be sold until October 11th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

More tax incentives for investments in Renewable Energies in Argentina<\/strong><\/p>\n
