Ingeteam has supplied 70 photovoltaic (PV) inverters for a solar project that is being constructed in Chile, owned by Global Power Generation (GPG), the international power generation subsidiary of the Naturgy group.
Over the next few months, the company is set to perform the commissioning work and will also be responsible for the provision of the operation and maintenance services at both plants, totaling a power capacity of more than 100 MW.
This project comprises two plants, San Pedro I and San Pedro IV, with 48 MW and 60 MW respectively, located in the heart of the Atacama desert. Given that this is the aridest desert in the world, with harsh climatic conditions, this project has been a real technological challenge.
For this project, Ingeteam has supplied 70 of its PV central inverters with 1500V technology and a rated power of 1690kW, housed in 18 Inverter Stations fitted with all the equipment required for low to medium voltage conversion. Furthermore, the Power Plant Controller (PPC) system for the management of all the solar inverters at both plants, was also supplied by Ingeteam.
Ingeteam has supplied 70 central PV inverters with 1500V technology. The inverter model is the INGECON SUN 1690TL B650, Sixteen 6.76 MW Inverter Stations, and two 5MW Inverter Stations, fitted with all the equipment required for low to medium voltage conversion (transformer and MV switchgear, LV switchboard, auxiliary services, PV inverters, etc.).
