SN Power Projects in Chile:
SN POWER CHILE
SN Power has been active in Chile since early 2003. A local holding company has been established to follow-up ongoing projects and develop new opportunities.
In the Tinguiririca Joint Venture, SN Power is constructing the La Higuera project (Which was recently fined for submitting a false environmental impact statement.) in addition to developing a second project, La Confluencia. Further project opportunities are evaluated within the same river system.
Additionally, a back up thermal power plant will be built: Colmito. Other potential projects are being developed in the Los Rios Region. The
Tinguiririca Project is the first building-block in a strategy to become a top four player in the Chilean central grid by 2010.
