“The project has issued the final notification for its execution and will be one of the first projects of this type to reach commercial operations in Chile,” the company said in a statement. The 220 MW/1.1 GWh site is CIP’s first energy storage project in Chile.
Chile’s first battery energy storage projects were commissioned in 2009, and all but two of its 16 administrative regions have facilities in operation, under construction or in the planning stage. The greatest installed capacity is found in the northern regions of Antofagasta and Tarapacá, the country’s solar powerhouses.
As renewables scale up, the need to store energy is increasing. Chile is leading the way in Latin America and has more projects in the pipeline, but hurdles remain
