Uruguay's oil and gas sector is relatively underdeveloped, as the country does not produce hydrocarbons domestically and relies entirely on imports to meet its fossil fuel needs. State-owned ANCAP (Administración Nacional de Combustibles, Alcohol y Portland) oversees the sector, managing imports, refining, storage, and distribution of fuels.
Uruguay's hydroelectric generation capacity is 1,500 megawatts (MW) from four hydroelectric plants: Salto Grande (Salto), Palmar/Constitución (Rio Negro/Soriano), Rincón del Bonete (Tacuarembó/Durazno) and Baygorria (Rio Negro/Durazno).
The electric vehicles sold in Uruguay have Type 2 connectors according to UNIT standards (UNIT – IEC 61851-1:2017 and UNIT – 1234:2016). The Government of Uruguay is also providing incentives and subsidies to increase the fleet of electric taxis and buses in the country.
