The Copiapo project will consist of two 120MW CSP towers with molten salt thermal energy storage good for 14 hours at full load combined with 150MW of PV, according to the developer.
This hybrid concept will maximize the output of the facility, delivering over 1,800 GWh each year, while providing a highly competitive price of power.
It will produce up to 260 MW of firm baseload power which is critical to Chile's industrial sector, particularly the mining companies in the region.
