Since 2005, Uruguay has been developing an aggressive introduction of Non-Conventional Renewable Energies. The first steps have been focused on specific measures for the introduction of wind power and biomass to the national grid, as well as solar thermal for domestic hot water production in commercial-services sectors, industry, public sector and more recently in residential sector. This process will allow reach the goal of have at least 50% of the national energy supply mix based on renewable sources and that at least 90% of the electrical grid supported by renewable sources, according to the Energy Policy 2005-2030. The mix of non-conventional renewable energy in Uruguay produces not only environmental and social externalities, but also favorable economic externalities for the country. Recent studies of technology foresight, developed by the Secretary of Energy (Ministry of Industry, Energy and Mining), show that in the short term Photovoltaic Solar Energy will be a source that meet conditions stated above. In this context, the Government of Uruguay has defined actions in order to incorporate in 2013 approximately 1% of the average power demand of Uruguay using solar source with photovoltaic technology. In this sense, the Secretary of Energy is working on the creation of conditions for holding a competitive process for the incorporation of new plants by private companies, ensuring the introduction of all the solar energy that can be generated in these ventures, through the signing of PPA contract with the Public Electric Utility (UTE). In addition, it has been guided the international cooperation for the purpose of building the first two solar farms (pilots) connected to the grid in order to test the technologies and their performance. After this initial goal, and considering that Uruguay would have achieved enough knowledge and local capacities at that time, the objective is to lead a continuous expansion of this technologies, willing to achieve de goal of 200 MW in 2020. For all these reasons, it is essential to support this process with actions to achieve local capacity building in order to incorporate this technology in the legal and technical regulatory framework, while generating knowledge and expertise for the sustainable future incorporation of photovoltaic energy power in the national energy mix.
