Tacna, in which US group Conduit Capital Partners is also an investor, is one of two PV plants the partners are building following the Peruvian renewables tender in 2010.
The second project, also 20MW, is located in Moquegua and is expected to come on line by the end of 2012.
Both have 20-year contracts with the Peruvian government. The Tacna project is equipped with more than 75,000 crystalline silicon modules, distributed over an area of 120 hectares, supplied by China's Yingli Solar.
