Electric vehicles with Li-ion battery (BEV) could be built leveraging on the strategic advantages of natural resources from the Uyuni Salt Lake – Bolivia and the availability of electricity in Paraguay from the Itaipu hydro-power plant, as well as from Bolivian natural gas and renewable resources.
The energy mixes and natural resources of Bolivia and Paraguay ensue a unique opportunity for the development and production of electric cars in Latin America. Economic, energy, environmental, mineral resources criteria are considered.
The Chaco Basin demonstrates many of the same characteristics as South America’s premier lithium brine producing regions, though it is historically under-explored for critical metals. Paraguay offers advantageous geopolitical, financial, tax, and security conditions for mining compared to its neighbors, Chile, Argentina, and Bolivia.
Profits repatriation from lithium mining is tax-free, and a 10% tax credit is available for exports. Additionally, Paraguay's extensive waterways, notably the Paraguay and Paraná rivers, facilitate crucial access to major ports, enhancing global connectivity.
The battery industry could be located in Bolivia while the Latin-American electric vehicle (LEV) industry could be based in Paraguay. Estimates conducted in this study show that replacement of existing fleet with (LEV) in the period of 10 years, the cumulative economic benefits for Paraguay are US$ 996 million and Bolivia in US$ 1373 million.
