Latin America Power

Over the past decade, Latin America Power has established itself as a key player in the energy sector in Chile and Peru.

Since 2011, we have developed projects based on various renewable sources, including hydro and wind power, while consistently fostering close ties with local communities and prioritizing environmental stewardship.

We are backed by our partners in Brazil—BTG Pactual, Patria Investments, and GMR Energia—who originally created the company ERSA/CPFL Renováveis in 2006.

Throughout our history, we have witnessed the growth of flagship projects and the communities around them. Our first investment in Chile was the construction of the Carilafquén-Malalcahuello run-of-the-river hydroelectric plant in Cunco, located in the Araucanía Region. We also developed one of the largest operational wind farms in Chile: San Juan de Chañaral de Aceituno, in the Atacama Region.

In Peru, we operated six hydroelectric plants in remote areas under contracts with the national government. These assets were sold in 2023 to Ardian, one of Europe’s leading investment funds. Alongside this, we worked closely with surrounding rural communities, supporting local economies and infrastructure through dedicated investment funds.

In October 2024, the San Juan and Totoral wind farms were sold to Colbún, highlighting the high-quality development achieved across technical, environmental, and community dimensions over the past 15 years.

Today, we continue to operate two renewable energy projects in Chile, contributing more than 29 MW of clean energy to the national grid—an example of operational excellence at every level.
