In 2015, Argentina issued a law for the promotion of renewable energy that, to this day, has not been Specifically, the law projected that, by 2019, 12% of the country’s electricity generation would come from renewable sources. The final objective was to achieve a 20% clean generation by 2025. Now only 5% of the energy is sourced out of renewable energies. Approximately 60% of the gas production in Argentina depended on only three or four of the nearly 100 deposits that the country has, and in recent years those deposits began to decline. The reason of not developing new gas fields was not the lack of natural resources, but economic problems. At that time, the current government decided to freeze gas rates, to avoid an increase in prices, which ended up deepening the local gas industry crisis. The country-which since 2000 had stopped needing gas imports to satisfy its domestic market – began to bring fuel from abroad, increasingly. Argentina currently imports about 30% of the gas it consumes, a percentage that will continue to grow. Argentina is part of the 2022 voluntary national review of high-level political forum on sustainable development. https://thegeneraltheorist.com/2020/01/20/argentina-a- sustainability.
