Converting Los Vientos into gas
Gas has been recognized as a key component of Chile's energy transition given its ability to meet peak demand and to serve as a backup for renewable energies. This is why we want to use it as a cleaner fuel in our 132 MW open cycle turbine Los Vientos, which currently runs on diesel.
