Kickstarting CSP as Chile’s perfect energy solutionmuch has been said about the potential of the CSP market in Chile and there has also been a lot of media hype surrounding the unlimited solar opportunities in this country. whether you are an idealist or a realist there are some key facts about Chile that cannot be denied:

> FACT: The cost of electricity in Chile is one of the highest worldwide and its demand is expected to keep growing in the future

> FACT: nearly 100% of Chile´s energy is imported, leaving the country vulnerable to price fluctuations and supply chain problems

> FACT: The direct normal irradiation (dni) is among the highest in the world in the Atacama desert, up to 3,800Kw/h at high altitudes

> FACT: The demand curve in the Great north, where most of the CSP development is expected, is continuous and flat 24/7 making CSP ideal compared to other potential renewable sources

> FACT: law 20257 was passed in 2010 with a stipulation that 10% of total energy generated in Chile has to come from renewable sources

> FACT: mining companies and other industries are trying to minimize their carbon footprint whilst enhancing their international competitiveness

looking at the facts you will see that Chile is a perfect storm: the energy-starved market suffers fluctuations but its relatively small size makes it hard to tip negotiations in its favor. Therefore taking advantage of an unused, plentiful resource of the desert seems like a no-brainer.

Realizing the CSP opportunity in Chile however time teaches us that the most logical solution to the problem is often ridden with challenges. And Chile is no exception.

Being a free market, there is very little government intervention to help develop renewables, other than law 20257. As a consequence, the main established utility in the country has become very conservative and are looking after their interests. for the most part this is to keep everything exactly as it is and to continue raising energy prices when costs rise.

however, a free energy market isn´t necessarily the best policy for Chile´s interests. it keeps the country dependent on energy imports and vulnerable to price fluctuations that could easily make them uncompetitive internationally. for that reason the Chilean government wants to help along the evolution of renewable energy in its strategic energy frameworks.

The mining companies, who in the Great north are the biggest consumers of electricity are equally conservative in terms of energy procurement.

mining companies have a history of dealing with their own sourcing and PPAs but they are conservative in their approach. The CSP industry must clearly expose and prove the flexibility and dispatchability of the energy produced to the grid.

furthermore, there are plenty of challenges in Chile to develop projects, least of which is the fact that in the middle of the Atacama desert, with the highest dni in the world, the chances of coming across plentiful water is next to zero. The mining companies pump their water from the ocean hundreds of km away and then desalinate it for use in the mines, but this is an impossible cost for CSP companies to face. Consequently, dry cooling is the only solution when developing in the desert. Adding to that the cost of thermal storage, a must-have in the Great north in order to match demand, makes the CAPEX costlier in a country where private banks are reluctant to lend to CSP projects. And to top that all off CSP must be seism-ready, as Chile is in an area where seismic activity is frequent and very strong, so it requires more attention and cost to lay the foundations appropriately.

First priority: Reduce costs to compete with fossil fuels The basic message here is that in order to stay and succeed in the Chilean market the costs must come down – and fast! The added technical difficulties provides an opportunity to become competitive, build a track record and gain the trust of the multi-billion dollar mining industry. This would undoubtedly open new doors for CSP development going forwards. make no mistake the stakes for the industry in Chile are very, very high!

Get the answers needed to succeed in Chile with everything that is happening in Chile, the first CSP Today LATAM event in 2013 is taking place in Antofagasta (Chile) in July. This event will bring together the energy and mining industry in a high level, intimate scenario which hasn´t taken place before, to exchange ideas, form partnerships and do business.

Combining months of research with your feedback, we´ve organized a program that has all the ingredients to teach you, step by step, how to develop and build a CSP project in Chile, including:

> Expert advice on developing projects in Chile: from securing land, environmental permits and connecting to the grid to choosing the right technology and securing finance

> What the clients want: understand what the mining companies are looking for in a PPA partnership

> Understand the full value proposition of CSP: from CAPEX to OPEX, capacity factor and plant lifecycle learn how build an unbeatable financial strategy

> Technical analysis of CSP adapted to the Chilean conditions: Get to grips with the various CSP technologies and their experiences in Spain and uSA, including Gemasolar (19.9mw tower, 15 hours of storage) and El morón (50mw parabolic trough ) among many others

CSP Today LATAM 2013 - the whole industry in one placeAt CSP Today we have international expertise on how to get the most senior experts and decision makers in one room to advance the industry. By attending the event, you will be immediately immersed in two information-packed days of presentations, panel debates and round table discussions. you will also get to meet, greet and rub shoulders with the most important companies from across the CSP value chain. you will leave with strategies and real-life lessons to drive your business forward, as well as the all-important contacts from over 20+ hours of networking time.

you cannot afford to miss this unique opportunity for your business

As the biggest and only CSP industry led event in lATAm, this event will sell out – so make sure you reserve your place now and guarantee the very best price for your passes!
