Canadian Solar Participates in the Zaldivar Project

Canadian Solar will develop 253 MWp of solar power and 1,000 MWh of storage in Chile. She will participate in the Zaldivar project.

Please share:

Canadian Solar wins CNE tender in Chile. Launched in January 2022, the latter to develop solar energy and its storage. In fact, energy consumption is increasing but supply is struggling to keep up.

Thus, the company will develop 253 MWp of solar energy and some 1,000 MWh of storage in the Zaldivar project.

Canadian Solar participates in the Zaldivar project

The Zaldivar project, located in the Antofagasta region, is currently under development. Construction is expected to begin in 2024 and it will be commissioned in 2026. This should prevent the emission of 263,000 tons of CO2 per year.

In addition, the Zaldivar project is part of a larger strategy. In fact, CNE is developing 3 renewable energy projects. These will produce 777 GWh/year.

Dr. Shawn Qu, CEO of Canadian Solar, is pleased:

“Chile is one of the most promising renewable markets in Latin America. This solar and battery storage project awarded to Canadian Solar will strengthen our leadership position in Latin America, particularly in Chile, where Canadian Solar has a backlog of 600 MWp of solar projects and 2.2 GWh of battery storage projects. We will continue to expand our project pipeline in Chile, which will help the country reach its goal of carbon neutrality by 2050.”
