Paraguay presented its Electric Mobility Master Plan for Urban Public Transport and Logistics (PMME), with which it aims to become a Latin American benchmark in electromobility.
An advantage of the country for the development of electromobility is the production generated by its large hydroelectricItaipU and Yacyretá, which provide the renewable energy necessary to become a country that moves in a completely clean way, reported the Diario Financiero.
It is estimated that by 2040, with the implementation of the PMME, the country will position itself as a benchmark in the Latin American region due to its transition towards electric mobility.
The PMME contemplates the replacement of the 100% of the public transport bus fleet50% of the taxis and the inclusion of electric bikes in the five main cities of the country. Likewise, the replacement of 50% of cargo trucks with electric vehicles, 50% of wagons dedicated to delivery and 100% of delivery motorcycles is expected.
The achievement of these established goals will not be possible without a strong and consolidated governance structure, which is why the recently formed Electric Mobility Strategic Council (CEME), led by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, becomes relevant.
