Panama’s National Energy Secretariat has introduced the first Annual Electricity Sector Tender Schedule, which outlines five bidding processes from 2025 to 2028. This includes a dedicated solar photovoltaic tender scheduled for 2026. The plan includes 1,420 MW of energy and 1,335 MW of new installed capacity, aiming for a balanced distribution of generation technologies. The separate tender for solar projects is designed to address technical considerations and prevent supply concentrations during daytime hours.
