AES Andes has commenced commercial operation of Andes Solar IV, a park located 230 kilometers east of Antofagasta, in the heart of the Atacama Desert, Chile.
The project comprises 211 MW of PV panels and 130 MW of energy storage for 5 hours based on lithium batteries. The company calls the largest operational battery system in Latin America.
“The entry into commercial operation of Andes Solar IV is a source of pride for the company and demonstrates that we continue to be the undisputed leaders in battery-based storage systems,” says Javier Dib, CEO of AES Andes.
“We were pioneers in Chile in implementing this technology and today our renewable hub in Antofagasta has the largest system in Latin America, combining 667 MW of solar with 259 MW of batteries. Our investment plan includes having more than 1,600 MW of operational batteries by 2027 in Chile. This is a concrete demonstration of AES Andes’ commitment to continue investing in the country, innovating and contributing responsibly to the energy transition.”
The company has initiatives under construction for 572 MW of renewable capacity in Chile.

Are We that Dumb?
Yes, part of this is stupidity. But a larger part is that people who still support Trump at this point are desperate to believe whatever comes out of his mouth, regardless of how nonsensical it may be.
I wish my mother were still here so I could see where she would stand. She was extremely well-educated, and a voracious reader, but somehow remained a Fox News viewer until the end. I just wonder if the last 15 months may have turned her around.

Trump and the Declaration of Independence
Those who stand in opposition to the president have dozens of different reasons for their feelings. One, as is on display here, is that he’s an ignoramus.

Could Obama Pass a Cognitive Test?
Not sure about this.
A magna cum laude graduate of Harvard Law School might struggle to identify a bear. Could be.
This is the intelligence level of the American electorate today.
