The resources available for the Bolivian energy system could be divided into fossil and renewable. Bolivia holds FG reserves (2 729, 1 009, and 1 485 TWh of proven, probable and possible reserves in 2018) . Furthermore, the economy of the country relies to a great extent on fiscal revenues and tax collection from FG exports.
Comparison of scenarios In 2035, according to the BAU scenario results, the Bolivian energy system is still fossil-based, with traditional fuels accounting for 62% of the TPES.
Future technologies were based on local commercial availability [51,53], government plans, and trends in Bolivia, so hydrogen-based, carbon-capture, heat pumps, and seasonal storage technologies were not considered. Table 3 shows different technologies' installed capacity and potential.
The share of the different fuels used for cooking was projected based on the information presented by the National Statistics Institute of Bolivia (INE) in 2021 . 4.1.4. Transport sector The final energy demand for public and private passenger transportation was based on FG (42.5%), gasoline (34.1%), diesel (20.9%), and electricity (2.4%).
Nevertheless, most of Bolivia's energy objectives and projections are based on 2007 statistics and extend un-til 2030. Recent expansion plans for the sector are described in the Patriotic Agenda for 2025 and the update of the Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) .
