El Salvador's energy sector is largerly focused on renewables. El Salvador is the largest producer of geothermal energy in Central America. Except for hydroelectric generation, which is almost totally owned and operated by the public company CEL (Comisión Hidroeléctrica del Río Lempa), the rest of the generation capacity is in private hands. With demand expected to grow at a rat. Electricity supply and demandEl Salvador is the country with the highest production in . Total installed capacity in 2006 was 1,312 MW, of which 52% was thermal, 36% and 12% geothermal. The largest sha. .
In 1995, only 65.5% of the population in El Salvador had access to electricity. Currently, the electrification index is 83.4%. This coverage is higher than that in Guatemala (83.1%), Honduras (71.2%) and Nicaragua (. .
In 2005, the average number of interruptions per subscriber was 12, while duration of interruptions per subscriber was 16 hours. This is very close to the for , which are 13 interruptions and 14 hou. .
The regulatory entities for the electricity sector in El Salvador are: • The Electrical Energy Directorate (DEE - Dirección de Energía Eléctrica), created in 2001, is the administrative Unit within the Ministry of.

The use of began in in the 1950s with the development by of a solar water heater to address the energy shortages that plagued the new country. By 1967 around 5% of water of households were solar heated and 50,000 solar heaters had been sold. With the , developed the prototype of the solar water heater now used in over 90% of Isr.

Electricity can be stored directly for a short time in capacitors, somewhat longer electrochemically in , and much longer chemically (e.g. hydrogen), mechanically (e.g. pumped hydropower) or as heat. The first pumped hydroelectricity was constructed at the end of the 19th century around in Italy, Austria, and Switzerland. The technique rapidly expanded during the 196.

Ravenswood was originally built and owned by of New York Inc. (Con Edison) in 1963. The first two units constructed in 1963 were Ravenswood 10 and 20, each having a generating capacity of approximately 385 . Then, in 1965, Ravenswood 30 (commonly called "") was commissioned with a generating capacity of nearly 981 megawatts. A new 1,000 MW unit was originally planned to be located on the north side of the
