Other sources that experienced a decline were coal and other fossil fuels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The renewability index in LAC electricity generation registered 65%, recovering from the drop in August, which reached 63%. This recovery in renewability is mainly explained by the decline in electricity demand in the region, which led to lower electricity production from natural gas, while hydroelectric generation experienced a certain recovery, thanks to improved water flow levels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15366,"parent":0,"template":"","categorias-reportes-mensuales":[379],"class_list":["post-18784","reportes-mensuales","type-reportes-mensuales","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categorias-reportes-mensuales-generationreport"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reportes-mensuales\/18784","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/reportes-mensuales"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/reportes-mensuales"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15366"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=18784"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categorias-reportes-mensuales","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.olacde.org\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categorias-reportes-mensuales?post=18784"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
