Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity

9 MW solar power system (using single-axis trackers) is installed in Yungay, Biobio. The generated electricity replaces a portion of grid electricity with renewable energy and reduces greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

This project contributes to the achievement of Chile’s policy for a renewable energy ratio target of 70% in 2050.

Expected GHG Emission Reductions
