Chile continues to be Latin America’s hotspot for energy storage deployments, with a major new deal for Grenergy and Engie bringing a project online in the past week.

Although the government in Poland has taken steps to open up its energy storage market, regulatory challenges remain.

Grenergy has secured a senior non-recourse financing agreement worth US$270 million for Phase 6 of its flagship Chilean solar-plus-storage project, Oasis de Atacama.

Spanish independent power producer (IPP) Grenergy has planned to invest €3.5 billion (US$3.9 billion) to increase its energy storage and hybrid portfolio by 2027.

Grenergy has raised financing for the fourth phase of a solar-plus-storage project in Chile set to feature 11GWh of battery storage capacity when completed.

Spanish independent power producer (IPP) Grenergy has secured a 1.25GWh energy storage supply agreement with CATL for its Oasis de Atacama project in Chile.

IPP Grenergy has acquired a 1GW solar PV portfolio and 1GW of energisation lines in Chile which will allow the hybridisation of 6GWh.

Independent power producer (IPP) Grenergy has reached financial close on phase one and two of its Oasis de Atacama BESS and solar project in Chile, which will eventually reach 4.1GWh.

Spain-headquartered Ingeteam has landed a deal to provide power conversion system (PCS) equipment for a solar-plus-storage in Chile with, according to its developer Grenergy, the world’s largest BESS.
