Renewable Energy World Editors
28 March 2012
Enel Green Power announced this week that it has been awarded three more geothermal exploration concessions in Chile, moving it closer to opening up one of the world's most abundant geothermal resources.
Two of the concessions are in areas within 70 kilometers of Santiago and the third is 1,000 kilometers north of the nation’s capital. Enel Green Power now holds eight geothermal exploration concessions in Chile.
Geotermica del Norte, a subsidiary of Enel Green Power, is close to entering the construction phase on a 40 MW facility in the region of Antofagasta in the northern part of Chile. Once completed, it will be the first geothermal facility in South America. Chile is estimated to have over 3,300 MW geothermal potential said Francesco Starace, Enel Green Power CEO, in a statement.
