The Spanish group Enhol, principal shareholder of the wind company Talinay, has announced their intention to invest approximately U.S. $ 1.000 million for the construction of the wind farm also called Talinay, located at the north of the country.

The CEO of the subsidiary of Enhol reported that they plan to install 250 wind turbines, with a capacity of 2 MW each, reaching a total of 500 MW. In turn, he said the farm will be built in three phases and will require the hiring of 50 workers. They estimate to take three years for the completion of works.

Recently, the Regional Environmental Commission (COREMA), granted permission to begin construction of this wind project, which is expected to be the largest in the country by providing 500 MW to the Central Interconnected System (SIC).

It is worth mentioning that the group Enhol is analyzing more investments for wind farms in various regions of the country, such as the region of Los Lagos, Chiloe, with a figure amounting up to U$S 600 million.
