Due to the abundance of water resources, country’s main energy matrix is ​​represented by hydroelectric dams. Although this is favorable from an environmental perspective, as it is a clean source, it is particularly problematic in times of water crisis. While energy production declines due to the lower amount of water passing through the turbines, demand remains unchanged, necessitating the activation of thermoelectric and thermonuclear plants. It is precisely this factor that causes the cost of energy to increase, since the primary source of the hydroelectric power is water, which is free. For the operation of the fired plants, it is necessary to purchase fuel, which makes this form of production more expensive, and, consequently, the final price charged for electricity.…
