The same is true of Mongolia. Actually similar population size too. They would also be a good candidate for full renewable transition given their geography. Unfortunately at the moment they’re at maybe 10% renewables. I think the main difference is that Uruguay’s economy is based around a lot of agriculture whereas Mongolia’s around a lot of mining, which is more energy intensive.
