Overview

Chile is advancing an ambitious energy transition, targeting 80% renewable electricity by 2030 and carbon neutrality by 2050. Key measures include phasing out coal, expanding solar and wind capacity, and developing green hydrogen, supported by regulatory reforms and public-private partnerships.

Get more details on the table of contents and data files, as well as the list of graphs and tables by browsing the tabs below.

Highlights

  • Chile targets a share of 80% of renewables in the power mix in 2030 and zero-emissions in 2050.
  • Around 40% of the coal capacity will be closed by 2025, with a total phase-out in 2040.
  • Enel is the largest power company, with around 40% of power generation and half of the distribution.
  • Around 12 GW of solar and wind were commissioned between 2019 and 2024.
  • The share of renewables in the power mix has increased rapidly since 2019 (+19 points), reaching 59% in 2024
  • Final energy consumption has remained roughly stable since 2022.
  • Industry absorbs almost 60% of the electricity consumption.
  • Around 9 GW of wind and solar projects are under construction.

  • Energy & Climate Policy Framework

    The Ministry of Energy is responsible for energy policy and planning.

    The Environment Ministry is in charge of climate change.

  • Energy Companies

    Oil:

    ENAP operates through ENAP Magallanes for oil exploration and production. In order to stimulate oil production, it is seeking partnerships with foreign partners, which would bring new production technologies to Chile. To date, it has created a joint venture with the Argentinean subsidiary of Chevron to explore the Caupolican block in the basin of Magellan.

  • Energy Supply & Demand

    Gas:

    Gas production is low (1.7 bcm in 2024) and is primarily intended for the supply of the Methanex methanol plant in the south of Chile.

    Gas imports have been rising since 2008 with the commissioning of two LNG import terminals in 2009 and 2010. Imports grew by 11%/year until 2022 and dropped by 4% in 2024 (5.1 bcm).

  • Energy Use and Price by Sector

    Energy Prices in Transport:

    Motor fuel prices follow international prices. They decreased in 2024, reaching US$1.4/l for gasoline (-7%) and US$1.2/l for diesel (-14%).

  • Issues & Prospects

    Chile's Energy Roadmap for 2050 targets a zero-emission power mix (mainly solar and wind) and a shift from private to public transportation which, according to the plan, should be low or non-carbon-emitting by 2050. New environmental standards, the promotion of energy efficiency and the eradication of energy poverty are also considered in the roadmap.
