San Andrés Battery Energy Storage System

The San Andrés battery energy storage project, with 35 MW/175 MWh (5 hours) of storage capacity, will be located on the site of Innergex’s existing San Andrés solar facility (50.6 MW) in the Atacama desert in Northern Chile.

The San Andrés battery project will feature Mitsubishi Power’s Emerald Storage Solution. It will dispatch the renewable energy produced by the solar facility and stored during the day to evening hours. Work on-site commenced in February 2023 and is progressing well with the required permits in place.

Currently under construction, the system’s commissioning is scheduled for 2023.
