Growth in Solar is Led by Falling Prices Solar installation price drops over the last decade have made solar economically competitive with other sources of electricity generation and led to its growth in new markets. An average-sized residential
For example, in 2014, the reported capacity-weighted average system price was higher than 80% of system prices in 2014 because very large systems with multiyear construction schedules
A notable example is the 1.2 GWh energy storage project co-developed by China''s Sungrow and Chile''s state-owned copper giant CODELCO. The system successfully
According to a December 2023 publication on the InvestChile website, the country had 23 approved energy storage projects with a total of 3,000 MW of capacity. Chile is exploring a variety of solutions to keep abreast of the changing energy demand landscape ranging from BESS to innovative projects using CO2.
Chile has an operational installed capacity of approximately 1GW in batteries, and another 3GW is under construction. Battery storage has been largely financed by bank lending in recent years, but we believe larger projects could increase the scope for bond financing.
Chile is exploring a variety of solutions to keep abreast of the changing energy demand landscape ranging from BESS to innovative projects using CO2. In March 2024, BESS Coya, the largest battery-based energy storage system in Latin America, started operations.
Around 9 GW of solar and wind have been commissioned in the country between 2019 and 2023, an Enerdata report dated April 2024 shows. The share of renewables in Chile’s power mix has been growing at a fast pace and reached 58% in 2023.
Fitch Ratings-Sao Paulo/New York-01 April 2025: Project finance transactions in Chile are expected to increase due to the recent commissioning of large battery energy storage systems (BESS), Fitch Ratings says. This should balance electricity supply and demand while reducing price volatility for renewable energy generators.
Co-located batteries, like Engie S.A.’s BESS Coya, will help solar plants capture better power prices by charging the batteries during solar hours when power prices are very low and dispatching energy during peak hours when prices are close to USD 100/MWh.
