With transmission lines at overcapacity and permitting delays slowing the development of new grid infrastructure, battery energy storage systems (BESS) have surged as a profitable alternative for Chilean power producers.
Chile's first battery energy storage projects were commissioned in 2009, and all but two of its 16 administrative regions have facilities in operation, under construction or in the planning stage. The greatest installed capacity is found in the northern regions of Antofagasta and Tarapacá, the country's solar powerhouses.
Engie Chile, meanwhile, has two lithium-ion battery storage systems in operation, with a total capacity of 141 MW. At the beginning of next year, the company will inaugurate a 264 megawatt-hour, 96-battery facility, taking its total BESS portfolio in Chile to 371 MW.
In fact, batteries charged at nearly $0/MWh during the day in the sunny, northern desert regions of Chile, sell energy at night for over $100/MWh. Although projects such as Engie's BESS Coya are already enjoying these large spreads, this capacity payment will partially de-risk Chile's dependence on volatile, but still profitable, merchant revenues.
Chinese companies are the world's leading producers of lithium batteries, and have shown increasing interest in Latin America's vast lithium reserves – including in Chile – to supply its own juggernaut clean energy industries that are key to transitions in China and abroad.
The positive results of Chilean economic development agency Corfo's call to use part of the reserved quotas2 for value-added projects (awarded to private-sector Chinese company BYD) demonstrate that it is possible to develop the lithium value chain in Chile through a profitable business venture.
