PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A wind power project located in the Llanquihue district in the Los Lagos Region. The wind farm is made up of 43 turbines with a total installed capacity of 129MW, equivalent to the energy consumption of approximately 195,000 homes. It has an underground transmission line with a total length of 223km at 33kV that will carry energy from the turbines to a step-up substation.
