Fernan Gonzalez's questions to Enel Chile (ENIC) leadership

Question · Q3 2025

Fernan González asked about the BESS Las Salinas (200 MW) and BESS Acebache (58 MW) projects, specifically if they involve additional solar capacity or just energy storage, and if the remaining 200 MW of BESS capacity will be added to existing solar PV in the north.

Answer

CFO Simone Conticelli confirmed that Enel Chile has launched three hybrid BESS projects this year, which are being implemented in existing solar power plants in the north. He clarified that these projects do not involve additional solar capacity but rather hybridize existing solar projects. This approach offers benefits such as faster project development, reduced environmental documentation, and cost savings in electrical infrastructure.
