through a Supplier or dedicate their production to isolated supply.

Article 22.- An isolated supply is understood to be the generation or import of electrical

energy to satisfy its own needs or for export, without transmitting said energy through the
National Transmission Network or through the General Distribution Networks. The
assumptions contained in articles 23, 24 and 25 of this Law do not constitute transmission
of energy by the National Transmission Network or by the General Distribution Networks.

- The Power Plants may allocate all or part of their production for isolated supply
purposes. The Load Centers will be able to satisfy all or part of their electrical energy
needs by isolated supply.

- The isolated supply is not considered Electric Supply. The isolated supply is an
activity of the electricity industry and is subject to the obligations of this Law.

- Authorization granted by the CRE is required to import or export electricity in an

isolated supply mode.

Article 23.- The Power Plants that allocate part of their production for isolated supply
purposes may be interconnected to the National Transmission Network or to the General
Distribution Networks for the sale of surpluses and purchase of shortages that result from
their operation in the Generator or Exempt Generator mode. , as long as the corresponding
interconnection contract is signed and they are subject to the Market Rules and other
applicable provisions.

Article 24.- The Load Centers that satisfy part of their electrical energy needs through
isolated supply may be connected to the National Transmission Network or to the General
Distribution Networks for the purchase of electrical energy and Associated Products, in the
Basic Supply User mode, Qualified Supply User or Qualified User Participating in the Market,
as long as the corresponding connection contract is executed and they are subject to the
Market Rules and other applicable provisions.

3. LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL FRAMEWORK OF
RENEWABLE ENERGIES
4. PRICE REGULATIONS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF
UNCONVENTIONAL ELECTRICAL ENERGY
5. ORGANIC LAW OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY
The last few years have witnessed the important advances that have been made in the
region in legal, institutional and policy matters to promote energy efficiency. Although the
mere fact of having an adequate legal framework is not a guarantee of success, there is no
doubt that it constitutes an important contribution to the achievement of the objectives. In
this sense, there is a trend in the region to strengthen the legal framework and the will of
several countries to put into effect a law specifically focused on EE. To all countries where a
law is already in force others will be added to these characteristics in the short term, whose
preliminary projects are in the preparation or discussion phase in their parliaments or
congresses. As an example, among the former, the cases of:

Brasil
In October 2001, it promulgated the Energy Efficiency Law, which allowed the Federal
Government to establish minimum levels of efficiency (or maximum consumption) for
equipment that was manufactured or sold in Brazil. In December 2001, within the
framework of the regulation of said law, the Management Committee of Energy Efficiency
Indicators and Levels was set up, with the objective of preparing a work plan and its
corresponding schedule, in order to enable the achievement of the objectives of the law.

Colombia
Through Law 697 of 2001, the rational and efficient use of energy, as well as the use of
unconventional energy sources, was declared a matter of social and public interest and of
national convenience. In 2003 Decree 3683 was issued, which regulated the objectives
proposed by the law regarding the rational use of energy.

Costa Rica
It has a Law for the Regulation of the Rational Use of Energy since 1994, which was
regulated in 1996. This is the oldest energy efficiency law in the region and since that time
it has not had substantial modifications. Given that some of the mechanisms established
there have become obsolete, there is a certain consensus on the need to review the legal
framework applicable in the country.

Ecuador
It has an Energy Efficiency Law which was published in the Official Gazette Supplement No.
449 dated March 19, 2019. It consists of a set of institutions, policies, plans, and investment
programs structured for compliance with the National Plan of Energy Efficiency (PLANEE).
The PLANEE will be mandatory for the public sector and indicative for the private sector.

Mexico
Specifically, it does not have a national energy efficiency law, but a set of laws have been
enacted that in some way cover this area. Thus, both the Law for the Sustainable Use of
Energy, as well as the Law for the Use of Renewable Energies and the Financing of the
Energy Transition, both of 2008, as well as the Energy Transition Law, of 2016, address in
detail the issues related to energy efficiency, with provisions aimed at promoting a
sustainable use of energy through optimal use of it in all its processes and activities. On the
other hand, the General Law on Climate Change, published in 2012 and amended in 2016,
complemented and strengthened the legal framework.
Nicaragua
In 2017, the National Assembly approved the Energy Efficiency Law, which aims to promote
the rational and efficient use of energy to guarantee energy supply at the lowest possible
cost and contribute to the conservation of the environment. The law also establishes the
delivery of recognitions and awards to the people or natural or legal entities that make the
best efficient management in the use of energy.

Panama
In 2012, the Law of Rational and Efficient Use of Energy was approved, which contemplated
the creation of a Strategic Plan for the Rational and Efficient Use of Energy (UREE) and the
Organization of the UREE Program necessary to comply with the Plan. This law was
regulated in 2013 and entered into force in 2014.

Peru
In 2000 the Law for the Promotion of Efficient Use of Energy was approved, and in 2006 the
Law to Ensure the Efficient Development of Electric Power. In 2007, by means of a Supreme
Decree, the activities related to EE were institutionalized, through the regulation of the Law
for the Promotion of Efficient Use of Energy.

Uruguay
Since 2009 the Law for the Promotion of the Efficient Use of Energy has been in force,
which declares the efficient use of energy of national interest and, among other aspects,
contemplates the creation of the Energy Efficiency Unit, within the National Directorate of
Energy of the Ministry of Industry, Energy and Mining, and the definition of a National
Energy Efficiency Plan 2015 - 2024.

Venezuela
In 2011 it approved the Law of Rational and Efficient Use of Energy, with the aim of
promoting and guiding the rational and efficient use of energy in the processes of
generation, transformation, transportation, distribution, and commercialization of energy.

For their part, among the countries in the region that have prepared or are preparing draft
energy efficiency laws, the following can be cited:
Argentina
In 2017, a process began with a view to the preparation and subsequent approval of an
Energy Efficiency Law, which is expected to establish the guidelines of the State Policy on
the matter, including minimum protection budgets based on the rational use of energy and
EE, with the prior consensus of the provincial governments.

Chile
On March 7, 2014, Decree No. 64 was issued, which approves the regulation that
establishes the procedure for the elaboration of the technical specifications of the energy
consumption labels and standards necessary for their application, in accordance with the
provisions of article 4 of DL No. 2,224, of 1978. Additionally, work is being done on the
definition of an Energy Efficiency Law.
El Salvador
The National Energy Council worked on the formulation of a Draft Energy Efficiency Law,
which was presented for review at the Presidential House in 2013 and submitted to the
Legislative Assembly in March 2014 for consideration.

Guatemala
In 2012, a preliminary draft of the Energy Efficiency Law was presented to Congress for its
treatment and eventual approval, a task that oversaw the National Electric Power
Commission. Said preliminary project included the creation of: I) the National Council for
Energy Efficiency; II) The Comprehensive Energy Efficiency Plan; III) Financing for the
Efficient Use of Energy; IV) Regulations and other Mechanisms for the Promotion of the
Efficient Use of Energy.

Honduras
In 2014, a bill for the Rational and Efficient Use of Energy was presented to the Sovereign
National Congress of the Republic, which is still in the process for discussion and approval.

Paraguay
It has the National Committee for Energy Efficiency, created by Decree 6377/11, of 2011,
which operates under the coordination of the Vice Ministry of Mines and Energy of the
Ministry of Public Works and Communications. The objectives of this Committee are to
identify existing programs and projects related to energy efficiency, identify sources of
financing for new projects, analyze fiscal, financial and tax measures to encourage energy
efficiency, establish standardization criteria, create promotional and dissemination
campaigns and prepare the National Plan for the Efficient Use of Energy.

Dominican Republic
In October 2016, the National Energy Commission received the proposal for a draft Law on
Energy Efficiency and Rational Use of Energy, by the Japan International Cooperation
Agency, for the purpose of its subsequent presentation to Congress. It contemplates the
establishment of a normative and regulatory framework for the implementation of an
incentive regime, promotion of technologies and consumption habits.
