12,453 MW installed capacity
5% increase per year during the past 5
years in installed capacity
3.0 % energy consumption increase
per year during the past 5 years
5,683,726 inhabitants without
electricity (Guatemala, Honduras and
Nicaragua accounting for 85 % of the
total).
In 2012, 64.6 % of the Energy injected
to the National Grids came from
Renewable Energy (RE) sources.
In 2012, 540 MW were added within
the region, all coming from RE
sources. This trend is expected to
remain constant in line with market
and environmental considerations.
• New power capacity added to the National Interconnected Grids
during the last years, predominantly from RE sources (+90%).
• Incentive laws in each and every country to promote RE investment
for power generation purposes.
• Long term Power Purchase Agreements, 15+ years to ensure financial
returns for investors.
• Acceptance of distribution companies or energy government agencies
of renewable energy during operation (avoiding intermittence issue)
• Regional infrastructure that allows energy transactions within the
whole region. Just recently the Central American Electrical Integration
System (SIEPAC) has been put into operation.
According to a 2009 study, geothermal potential for power generation in Central
America is estimated to be of 3,900 MW and more than 50 sites have been identified
for eventual development

During the dry season wind power
provides up to 35% of
electricity in Nicaragua
 C.A. as a whole has an
average radiation that
ranges from 1,440 (4
hours per day) to
2,340 (6.5 hours per
day) during peak
hours.
 Radiation of at least 4
peak hours per day is
considered a
profitable investment
when bearing in mind
the electricity costs in
the region.

(*) These countries are also benificiary countries.
In 53 years of history, CABEI has been the main promoter of
development in the Central American region:
• The Bank has financed more than 2,800 operations in the sectors
of road infrastructure, energy, healthcare, education, water and
sanitation, MSME, agriculture and rural development, housing,
industry and tourism.
• CABEI has expanded its field of action to include Belize, Panama,
Dominican Republic, Colombia and Argentina as beneficiary
countries.
• In 2009, CABEI increased its authorized capital from US$2.0 billion
to US$5.0 billion in order to attend the region’s increasing need
for financing. To that end, it developed a new strategy for the
2010-2014 period.

• CABEI expects to approve US$360 MM during
2014 in the Energy sector (25% of the Bank´s
investment portfolio).
• Projects to be funded during 2014: Wind
Power, Hydro, Geothermal and Private
investments (mainly in Honduras) due to the
Deregulation of the Transmission and
Distribution lines.
• Stronger links with National Goverments, other Multilaterals (IADB, WB, CAF)
and Bilateral Financial Institutions (KFW) will lead to new projects, such as:
(a) Joint Geothermal Development Facilities to boost investment within
this renewable energy source.
(b) Distribution Generated Energy with help of solar technology and a
considerable increase in solar energy interconnected to National Grids
capable of supplying neighbouring countries through existing
infraestructure.
(c) New power additions from Wind Power throughout the region.
(d) Introduction of Natural Gas as a cleaner and more efficient source of
Energy, displacing Bunker fuel.
• CABEI is committed to financing RE energy projects and maintaining its
position as main financial provider of the Central American region.
• CABEI will maintain its support to national and regional interventions such as
those identified within the Central American Integration System and
Mesoamerica Project.
• New power generation will come, most likely, from RE investments due to
market and environmental considerations.
• Every single country in the region has opened the power generation sector to
private investors.
• Deregulated Energy Markets in Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua and
Panama, will allow investments in power generation, distribution and high
voltage transmission (only GUA and ES allow private investments in high
voltage).
• Honduras is currently deregulating its Energy sector with a clear decision to
allow investments in Transmission and Distribution (currently only the power
generation sector is open to private investments).
• The introduction of RE will need investment from distribution/energy related
companies in order to cope with the intermittence issue of these
technologies.
• US$1.5 billion per year will be required to fulfill energy investment needs in
the region.
