In a significant effort by the public sector, Paraguay <\/strong>launched a few weeks ago the Multimodal Electric Mobility Master Plan for Urban Public Transport and Logistics<\/strong>, with which it is estimated that by 2040<\/strong>, the country will be positioned as a reference in the Latin American region for its energy transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Vice Minister of Industry and Commerce, Francisco Ruiz D\u00edaz<\/strong>, pointed out that there is currently an international commitment to move from polluting energy to clean energy, an objective that Paraguay <\/strong>is also pursuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Today, we import US$2.6 billion a year of oil and when it goes up, it impacts people. With an electric vehicle we would only spend 10% of what we were spending and the same with public transportation<\/strong>,” he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
