The projects will generate approximately 536.5 megawatts, significantly diversifying Ecuador's electricity generation. Additionally, China's Power China will contribute $400mn for renewable energy and storage projects, with resources arriving gradually through December 2026, according to the announcement.
'This agreement reinforces the Government's commitment to developing a sustainable, diversified, and resilient energy matrix,' Energy Minister Inés Manzano stated, as reported by El Periódico de la Energía. The projects will generate approximately 536.5 megawatts, significantly diversifying Ecuador's electricity generation.
According to Ecuador’s Central Bank, power outages caused economic losses of about $2 billion in 2024. In 2024, Ecuador’s generation capacity was 9,255 megawatts (MW), of which 5,686 MW (61 percent) was renewable energy sources, and 3,569 MW (39 percent) was non-renewable energy sources (fossil fuels derived from oil and natural gas).
During a prolonged dry season in 2024, Ecuador’s over-reliance on hydropower (78 percent of total generation) resulted in daily blackouts of up to 14 hours, hurting economic activity. According to Ecuador’s Central Bank, power outages caused economic losses of about $2 billion in 2024.
Ecuador had a peak demand of 5,110 MW in May 2025, and according to CENACE, electricity demand grows by 360 MW every year. Ecuador’s energy shortage could result in a recurrence of power outages, particularly in the dry season of September through December. Ecuador has added minimal generation in recent years.
Ecuador’s renewable energy is comprised of hydro power (5,419 MW), biomass (1550 MW), wind (71 MW), photovoltaic (29 MW), and biogas (11 MW). Hydroelectric power plants are in three regions: coastal (2 provinces), Andes (9 provinces), and Amazon (4 provinces).
