Chile is advancing its hydrogen pipeline. Although there have been only demonstration plants and pilots operating to date, there is around 60 projects that have been announced, worth billions of dollars in investment. This year there will be five or six large-scale projects that will enter the environmental impact assessment system.
Chile is making huge strides in transitioning away from coal-fired power plants. The new goal is to close all 28 coal powerplants by 2030, 10 years sooner then originally projected, and there is a chance that it could be accelerated even more. Check out our update to see where the country currently stands on its path towards decarbonization.
Chile released its national green hydrogen strategy in 2020 which set out a road map for the country to become a major exporter. The country has the largest project pipeline in the Americas but there is still plenty of challenges that remain on the road ahead.

Chile has been able to take transform its energy matrix in a very short period of time. The growth of renewables has also uncovered weak points that need to be addressed if the sector will continue to grow. Battery storage is an important first step to solving the high levels of dumping, congestion and zero marginal costs for Chilean producers.
Chile has taken huge strides over the last 10 years as it has worked towards the goal of decarbonizing its electric sector. The growth of renewables has also uncovered weak points that needs to be addressed if the sector will continue to grow. Battery storage and transmission capacity are at the top of the list to help solve these issues.
Chile has a large pipeline of solar and wind projects that will be built in the next few years, but it does not do much if there is no way to dispatch the power to where it is needed. For this reason, transmission capacity is one of the most important issues that needs to be solved in the short to medium term.
