A SOLAR ENERGY PLANT TO BE BUILT IN CHACO, ARGENTINA. (from an article published by  Diego Alcubiere, Boletín # 19, Renewable Energy newsletter, May 2014)

Officers of a China state company traveled to the Province of Chaco, Argentina, in order to advance in an investment plan for the construction of a photovoltaic solar energy generation plant in the Quitilipi región.

 Power China, is a company belonging to the China Investment Corporation group, one of the five larger state companies that produce electricity in the Asian continent. The Enterprise generates electricity in almost 30 provinces in China, supplying about 10% of the country’s energy.

The main idea is to build the Chaco Province’s  first photovoltaic solar energy plant in cooperation with the provincial government in Quitilipi, 145 km Northwest of Resistencia, the province`s Capital City.

Comment by the Blog’s Editor: Unfortunately it is not unusual that the announcement of interesting plans in clean energy generation are never followed through. Some years ago the Argentine government announced the construction in Patagonia of what it was going to be the largest eolic generation plant in America. It was an excellent news but were never materialized. Let’s hope that with the present plans the country (and the globe) will have better luck.  Ing.
