Distributed Solar Portfolio II

Capitalizing on our scale and experience in the Chilean solar market, CC&L Infrastructure, in partnership with CarbonFree Technology secured a second portfolio of ground mount assets in August 2021. This portfolio includes the right to invest in approximately 100 MW of construction-stage solar projects, which upon completion would be capable of generating enough power to meet the needs of more than 16,500 homes each year.

Each project within the portfolio is strategically located within a defined radius of Santiago, Chile’s main energy load center, and sells its power at a stabilized price under the Pequeños Medios de Generación Distribuidos (PMGD) program.
