Even though each thermal energy source has its specific context, TES is a critical function that enables energy conservation across all main thermal energy sources [5].In Europe, it has been predicted that over 1.4 × 10 15 Wh/year can be stored, and 4 × 10 11 kg of CO 2 releases are prevented in buildings and manufacturing areas by extensive usage of heat and …
Panama expects total energy demand to more than double between 2017 and 2030 (+113%), with peak demand growing from 1.6 GW to 3.5 GW. Panama is currently connected to Costa Rica via a 300 MW transmission line. A 400 MW high-voltage direct current (HVDC) interconnector with Colombia is expected to be commissioned by 2022.
To adapt Panama’s energy system to this evolving paradigm, a comprehensive plan is needed that considers a rapid growth in demand from the electrification of transport, including from the introduction of expanded metro lines, electric passenger vehicles and electric buses.
The transport sector includes both cargo and passenger transport, and is the largest consumer in Panama’s total final energy consumption, at around 45% (Figure 3). The number of vehicles on the road in Panama has accelerated in recent years, from 564 155 in 2012 to 718 518 in 2015 (Figure 7).
Energy-intensive industries in Panama include food, tobacco, cement and paper production. Based on SNE (2015), Plan Energético Nacional (2015-2050). 4. COMMERCIAL AND PUBLIC SECTOR: The commercial and public sector is the largest consumer of electricity among the four sectors. Consumption reached 2 816 kboe in 2014 (Figure 5).
The largest source in the electricity mix is hydropower, followed by thermal generation (oil products and coal). Wind and solar power came on line in 2013, and by 2016 Panama had 270 MW of installed wind power capacity and 90 MW of installed solar power capacity (SNE, 2015).
Since 2014, investments in solar and wind energy have grown markedly. Today, more than two-thirds of Panama’s electricity generation comes from clean sources, primarily through the contribution of hydropower. The country also has the largest wind farm in the region, and solar power generation – although still modest – has begun to take of rapidly.
