2016年年中，阿根廷政府启动了RenovAr计划，这是一项公共项目，旨在通过一系列国际招标来快速整合可再生能源。在一个以天然气为主，其次是石油的能源结构中，目标是到2025年将可再生能源发电量从2%提高到20%。当时，总统毛里西奥·马克里（Mauricio Macri）保证：“Podemos producir mucha energía renovable, tenemos una gran potentialidad（…）Para mí to es el comienzo de algo maravilloso, el comienzo de una etapa maravillosa Para nuestro país”[“我们可以生产大量可再生能源，我们有很大的潜力（…）对我来说，这是美好的开始，是我们国家美好阶段的开始”]（Ámbito, 2016）。仅仅三年后，该计划就在该国正在经历的经济金融危机中几乎陷入瘫痪，即使国际货币基金组织（IMF）提供了创纪录的贷款，也无法补救。在这一点上，出现了指导本文的问题：在阿根廷经济金融危机之后，阻碍其连续性的RenovAr计划的内在特征是什么？本文是对周边国家成功实现能源转型所面临的障碍进行的更全面调查的一部分，尽管它并不打算自动将其结论推断到其他案例。
In mid-2016, the Argentine government launched the RenovAr plan, a public program that sought the rapid incorporation of energy from renewable sources 1 through a series of international tenders for installed power. In an energy mix largely dominated by natural gas, followed by oil, the goal was to move from 2% renewable electricity generation to 20% by 2025. At that time, President Mauricio Macri assured:“Podemos producir mucha energía renovable, tenemos una gran potencialidad (…) Para mí esto es el comienzo de algo maravilloso, el comienzo de una etapa maravillosa para nuestro país"[“We can produce a lot of renewable energy, we have great potential (…) For me, this is the beginning of something wonderful, the beginning of a wonderful stage for our country”](Ámbito, 2016). Just three years later, the program was virtually paralyzed in the midst of the economic-financial crisis that the country was undergoing and that could not be remedied even with the record loan granted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).At this point, the question emerged that guides this article: what were the intrinsic characteristics of the RenovAr program that hindered its continuity after the economic-financial crisis in Argentina? This article is part of a more comprehensive investigation into the barriers faced by peripheral countries 2 to achieve a successful energy transition, although it does not intend to automatically extrapolate its conclusions to other cases.
