math-modesiunitx
I want to show a range from 0 to infinity. I'm using this line of LaTeX with siunitx imported:
\numrange[range-phrase = --]{0}{\infty}
That line gives this error:
siunitx error: "invalid-token-in-number"
I've also tried with $'s around the \infty. What is the correct way to render this range?
One could regard the percentage error as part of the unit and write:
\SI{145}{\milli\meter{} \pm{} 5\percent}
This will not break across lines, unless you use the option allow-number-unit-breaks.
(Re-wrote the answer after the OP changed the table in the MWE.)
The following solution lets you use the S column type for the four "GWh" columns and lets you use a tabularx environment (to assure that the width of the table is equal to \linewidth). The trick -- such as it is -- consists of using S for the numbers and C (a centered version of X) for the headers.
You'll observe that I've reorganized the table's header. Your original setup requires line-breaks for all four important header words -- Producción, Consumo, Exportaciones, and Importaciones. I think it's better to avoid (as much as possible) the hyphenation of such words. I left the square brackets around the GWh headers; however, they may not be needed.
(To simplify and streamline the preamble code, I've also removed all packages that don't appear to be essential to generating the table.)

Addendum: Here's the same table, but without the reorganization of the header material. The code is the same as above, except that a Y column type is used for four of the header cells.

As Troy notes,
\numrangehas a Boolean flag that controls this behavior:parse-numbers.
