Node
Paraguay
Paraguay · South America · Ciudad del Este / Itaipú corridor
Massive hydro. Underused advantage.
Paraguay sits close to exceptional hydro resources and remains one of the strongest asymmetric power stories in the hemisphere.
Why this node ranks here
Paraguay ranks well under Temporal Compute because of its electricity and site sensitivity.
Drivers
- • Strong electricity (10.0)
- • Strong site sensitivity (8.0)
Constraints
- • Limiting connectivity (5.0)
- • Limiting permitting (6.0)
Factor breakdown
Electricity
Hydro advantage at unusual scale
Paraguay remains one of the strongest power asymmetry stories in the region.
Permitting
Open, but still developing
The opportunity is strong, though institutional and execution depth are still developing.
Cooling
Serviceable conditions
Cooling is manageable, even if it is not the headline advantage.
Connectivity
Connectivity lags the power story
Digital adjacency is weaker than the underlying electricity thesis.
Execution stability
Asymmetric, not frictionless
The upside is real, but investors still need to underwrite execution risk carefully.
Siting fit
Generally favorable for buildout
The siting profile is stronger than more water-stressed or densely contested environments.
Why it matters
It is one of the clearest stranded-energy opportunities in the region.
