The $250 million solar photovoltaic facility provides electricity to the CAP Group, an iron and steel producer, under an off-take agreement. Located in the Atacama Desert, the 250-acre plant has more than 310,000 PV modules. The plant is expected to generate approximately 270 GWh of electricity per year.
