Ingeteam exceeds 120 MW of PV power supplied in Chile

Ingeteam has exceeded120 MW of PV power supplied in Chile. This record figure has been achieved thanks to the good results obtained with the INGECON SUN PowerMax central inverters, featuring a rated power of 1 MW and a maximum efficiency of 99.1%. These inverters have been installed in a solar plant with a 100 MW power output, being the largest plant in operation in Latin America to date. This plant is located in the Atacama Desert, famous for being the driest place on earth. Thanks to the unbeatable solar radiation levels recorded in this region, the plant is expected to generate up to 270 GWh of energy per year, which will prevent the emission of 135,000 tons of CO2 into the atmosphere.

Ingeteam is a leader in renewable energy plant O&M in Latin America, with contracts totalling 1.2 GW. The company has a subsidiary in Santiago de Chile, which has now been operating for over 3 years.
