Argentina Grid Status & Electricity Data

CAMMESA administers Argentina's wholesale electricity market and the SADI interconnected system, a roughly 20 GW grid running mostly on gas-fired thermal plant with large hydro, a growing renewable share and two nuclear stations. GridVigil tracks national demand and generation by category, refreshed through the day.

As of Aug 26, 2026, real grid metrics for Argentina are shown below. GridVigil's Power Pressure Score is not yet calculated for this region.

Current data

• Current Argentina electricity demand is 16.3 GW.
• The most recent peak was 18.6 GW.
• Grid carbon intensity: 211 gCO₂/kWh.
• Renewable generation (wind, solar, hydro): 3.2 GW.
• GridVigil Power Pressure Score is not yet calculated for Argentina: the U.S. scoring thresholds aren't a defensible fit without region-specific calibration, so raw metrics are shown here instead. Why.
