"In 2023, renewables accounted for 63.3% of Chile’s electricity mix, according
to data collated by energy research group Ember.
The context: For decades, Chile relied mainly on coal, gas and hydroelectric
plants to power its economy. But in recent years, policymakers have sought to
make better use of the country’s enviable solar and wind resources.
Things have changed fast:
* Renewables, mainly hydro, comprised just 33.1% of the electricity mix as
recently as 2016 — the year that power-sector emissions peaked.
* Now, wind and solar hold the largest share of the mix, with solar alone
contributing 20% of annual electricity output — the highest level globally."
