OHL will build an 86 MW photovoltaic plant in the Atacama Region and a 50 MW wind farm in Region VI. The award of the photovoltaic plant amounts to EUR70 million (US$75.93 million) and has been granted by Clean Capital Energy. The scope of the contract includes the complete EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) of the installation, including engineering, construction, and supply of all the main equipment, as well as the subsequent operation and maintenance. OHL will also be responsible for the work related to its electrical interconnection with the Transportation Network and the National Electric System of Chile.

The second contract awarded has a value of EUR10 million (US$10.85 million) and consists of the construction of a wind farm in Region VI of Chile, granted by Opdenergy. The agreement provides that OHL also performs the plant balance (BOP) of the facility, so, in addition to the construction of the wind farm, OHL will be responsible for its engineering, commissioning and electrical interconnection with the National Electric System of Chile.
