The last stage of construction of the 210 MW Cerro Dominador complex has been restarted after the delay due to financial problems. 

This milestone will allow the company to complete the construction of the first combined thermosolar and photovoltaic energy project in Latin America, with a total of 210 MW of installed capacity. The 100 MW photovoltaic (PV) facility has been in commercial operation since February 2018.

The plant will supply clean and reliable energy to Chile’s interconnected national system, selling most of its production under 15-year power purchase contracts awarded at the end of 2014.
