SMA is supplying 46 Medium Voltage Power Station for the 220 megawatt Diego de Almagro Sur PV power plant in the Atacama Desert in Chile. The project will see South American power generation company Colbun SA expand its portfolio in the field of renewable energies.
For the Diego de Almagro Sur PV project, SMA will supply a total of 46 Medium Voltage Power Station (MVPS) – each one equipped with a Sunny Central 4600 central inverter as well as a transformer and switchgear in a single container. The container solution is easy to transport and quick to install and commission. With the Opticool active temperature management system from SMA, the MVPS is ideally suited to the extreme conditions in the world’s driest desert and ensures full performance capability even at high altitudes.
