Italian clean energy developer Limes Renewable Energy has reached the ready-to-build stage at its 200MW/1GWh Huañil project.
The project is located in the Coquimbo region, just north of the capital Santiago, and is the company’s largest battery energy storage system (BESS) in Chile. The project and joins a portfolio that includes two other BESS, currently in development with a combined power of 350MW, and the Pradera Larga solar-plus-storage project, which aims to pair 84MW of solar PV capacity with 90MW of BESS.
The Huañil project is also the company’s first to reach the RTB stage outside of Italy, and Limes said that the Pradera Larga project, and one standalone BESS in Chile, would advance towards the RTB stage “in the coming months”.
