Argentina Reshapes Yacyretá Leadership With Diego Adúriz as Executive Director

Overview

  • Decree 15/2026, published in the Boletín Oficial, formalizes a reorganization of Argentina’s representation at the binational Yacyretá entity.
  • Diego Adúriz is appointed Executive Director through January 2031 after serving as an EBY counselor and previously on CAMMESA’s board.
  • The government accepted Alfonso Peña’s resignation as Executive Director, and he transitions to a counselor role through March 31, 2027.
