Central & South America is an oil & gas-based economy that relies majorly on oil & gas for energy mix in the region. The region is also following a trend similar to Europe and is heavily focusing on power generation through renewable resources. For instance, in July 2023, Argentina's Ministry of Energy announced the results of a renewable energy generation tender, awarding a total of 633.7 MW across 98 projects under the RenMDI2 program.

The projects were divided into two groups: group 1 with 500 MW capacity and group 2 with 120 MW capacity. Group 1 included 46 projects with 501.1 MW of solar PV capacity, a 3-MW biomass project, and a 10 MW wind-plus-storage project. Group 2 comprised 52 projects, including biomass, biogas, small hydroelectric, and solid urban waste projects.

The tender guidelines specified project sizes and locations for each group, with notable winners being Energias Renovables Las Lomas SAU and Coral Consultoria en Energia S.A. in the 500-MW category Brazil is also focusing on reducing dependence on hydropower and is likely to develop renewable power generation sources over the coming years.
