Grenergy Renovables, an independent renewable energy company based in Spain, is delivering the world's largest hybrid solar and battery storage project, Oasis de Atacama, in northern Chile. . Chile has emerged as a leading destination for renewable energy investments in Latin America, with over 40% of its electricity consumption sourced from renewables in early 2024. Ensuring projects are paid for injecting power into the grid during peak periods has supported growth, and ambitious battery energy. . If you're in the energy storage game, Chile's 2025 tender announcement is like spotting a rare bird in the Atacama Desert—exciting and packed with potential. The context: The South American nation's brisk shift to clean electricity was sparked by staunch community opposition to traditional power projects. As production continues to ramp up, the need to store this energy is increasing alongside it.
