Renewable Energy Supply Options: Macrogrid vs. Microgrid

A macrogrid is either government-owned or privatized. If you own a solar and battery storage system that is connected to the macrogrid, you can consume energy from the grid itself. You can also send energy into it. This grid system is resilient and largely reliable.

URUGUAY POWER SYSTEM FLEXIBILITY ASSESSMENT

In 2016, Uruguay''s power system had a very high share of renewable installed capacity (around 80%), comprising half VRE (mainly wind) and however, without an active cross-border market, half hydro and biomass plants. Electricity was almost 100% renewable, with hydro contributing 56%, wind 22%, biomass 18%, solar photovoltaics

Innovative solutions for achieving 100% renewable power

in the power sector, the workshop on ''Innovative solutions for 100% renewable power systems by mid-century'' has been held back-to-back with the regional IRENA Innovation day in Montevideo, Uruguay. The focus was on countries who have pledged very high (above 70-80%, and in some cases 100%) renewable power targets by mid-century.
