    Making PV the power of choice in energy-starved Chile

    In 2013 at least 50MW o PV power will come online in Chile making it one o

    the astest growing PV markets in the world, an incredible growth rom only

    1.3MW in 2012. Chile is seen as a market with huge opportunities but with

    several large hurdles to get projects o paper and into production

    The dream solar resourceWith on the ground measurements as much as 3,500 kWh/m2 and a

    relatively even coverage across the northern region developers have a

    much larger amount o exibility in site location.

    Whilst much is said about the DNI/GHI rates in the northern provinces,

    there are PV opportunities to be ound at the northern points o the central

    grid as well. This grid is much larger with a ar higher capacity indicating

    that this may be one o the areas with the best prospects. The unparalleled

    solar resource o Chile has meant that the electricity can compete with gas

    without the need or subsidies, where else in the world can you say that?

    PV at a protable price!

    In Chile there are currently two dierent customers or solar power; Utility

    companies and the mining community. In 2010 law 20.257 came into

    eect requiring 10% o power output rom producers to come rom non-

    conventional renewable energy, opening up a market opportunity market

    opportunity. AES Gener and E-CL (power companies) have both recently

    launched tenders or submitted applications or PV power plants. Whats

    more several mining companies have agreed PPAs or PV projects with

    more expected to ollow suit. As these companies currently use o-grid

    diesel generators to meet their 24/7 energy needs, PV presents a lower

    cost, greener opportunity. So ar PPAS have been signed or 18MW, 25MW

    and 100MW plants to help mining companies dramatically cut the day time

    electricity costs or their operations, and with the mining industry continuing

    to grow in Chile, so will the opportunity!

    Whats more, the low cost o energy has also led to the slow but certain

    development o the spot market. Whilst the business model is certainly

    riskier due to the lack o set price, it can oer a viable way o working

    with utility companies and profting rom the resources, building trust and

    credibility which can only have a positive eect on the whole industry.

    The PV bottleneck

    The combination o large resource and clear customer base has attracted

    over 100 solar developers and EPCs to launch ventures in Chile. Whilst

    over 3.1GW o projects have been approved by the SEA- (Chiles national

    environmental agency) this number does not accurately reect the number

    o projects likely to get developed. Ater all, i all 3.1 GW o approved solar

    projects were installed in Chile, 36% o power supplied to the CDEC-SING

    grid would be PV within 7 years. Growth that ast has never been achieved

    in any other market and whilst not impossible would require large-scale

    upgrading o the grid inrastructure in Chile. So i not all projects will get

    to construction stage, what gives some projects a competitive edge over

    others?

    Getting to grips with the grid

    Getting connected to the Chilean grid is currently a major hurdle or

    developers. With over 30 individual permits, and several authorities it

    can add huge delays and costs to a project. Whats more, uncertainty

    over additional upgrading to the grid can also leave projects in limbo.

    To be a viable energy supplier to mining companies, developers need todemonstrate a detailed understanding o the transmission system or both

    grid-connected and distributed systems as well as the pursuant costs.

    Reviewing the situation

    Understanding the specifc details o the landscape or project development

    is essential. The climatic conditions o Chile as well as the rural geography

    require a plant design and monitoring strategy tailored specifcally to the

    region. Community relations, construction materials and a cost-eective

    O&M strategy all entail conditions unseen anywhere else in the world.

    These country specifc variables oer companies the chance to innovate to

    reduce costs and fll the niche or adapted products.

    Getting real about nances

    Caution and hesitancy are the two buzzwords o the current fnancing PV

    market in Chile and international banks are expected to lead the way with

    solar fnancing as they have more experience. This means that projects will

    be subjected to higher levels o scrutiny due to the added risk o Chile as a

    new market with ew precedents. Thus, whilst the current project pipeline in

    Chile does include developers with the ability and nous to get their projects

    into production, many will stay at an early stage o development.

    The impact o not taking into account grid connection and project

    development constraints specifc to Chile is that projects are ar less

    likely to be fnanced. International developers require regional sta with

    an in-depth knowledge o the energy market and procedures to ully take

    advantage o the solar opportunity. To get the holy grail o fnancing plants

    currently need a PPA and even then the o-taker needs to be viewed as

    credit worthy.
