Capacity of the Chilean Valparaiso Independent Energy Storage Project

3 FAQs about Capacity of the Chilean Valparaiso Independent Energy Storage Project

Are battery energy storage systems a viable alternative for Chilean power producers?

With transmission lines at overcapacity and permitting delays slowing the development of new grid infrastructure, battery energy storage systems (BESS) have surged as a profitable alternative for Chilean power producers.

Do Chilean co-located storage assets need an environmental impact statement?

Since Chilean co-located storage assets don't require an Environmental Impact Statement (known locally as the DIA), development times for storage assets have been cut in half compared to solar or wind assets.
