As it has been described, most electricity generation in the Dominican Republic comes from thermal sources. Only 14% of the installed capacity is, with this percentage falling to below 9% when all the thermal self-generation is accounted for. The exploitation of other renewable resources (i.e., ) is very limited. However, this situation is expected to change following the enactment of in May 2007 of the (Law No. 57-07). Amon.
