[Solar: Paraguay launches tender for 140MW Loma Plata PV project]

Published: May 28, 2026 08:46
Paraguay’s National Electricity Administration has launched a tender for the 140MW Loma Plata solar project in the Boquerón department. The plant will connect to the national grid through the 220kV Loma Plata substation, with the scope covering engineering, construction, operation and maintenance of both the solar plant and related transmission infrastructure. The project, supported by the World Bank, is the first concrete step under Paraguay’s new renewable energy framework, Law No. 7599/2025. SMM believes the law’s provisions for up to 30-year renewable PPAs and storage-related mechanisms could help unlock future solar and solar-plus-storage development in Paraguay.
