Paraguay possesses one of the world’s cleanest electricity grids, generating 100% of its power from renewable hydroelectric sources. However, its total energy supply (which includes transportation and heating) is more diversified, with roughly one-third of its needs met by imported oil and another third by biomass.

Paraguay is emerging as a potential leader in green hydrogen, leveraging its 100% renewable electricity grid (primarily hydropower) to target 1 GW of electrolysis capacity by 2030. The country aims to produce green fertilizer and substitute fossil-based fuels, with major projects, such as ADA Green Hydrogen Holdings’ $100M+ plant in Villa Hayes, planned for 2028.

As of 2026, there’s no information indicating that it is producing green hydrogen from electrolysis of seawater.
