Rijn Capital , established by Dutch investment company Rijn Capital BV, has 500MW of PV projects under development in Chile.

Vitorino Rocha, EFACEC’s general manager of Renewables Business Division said: “We believe that this project will not only serve as an example of the application of renewable energy to the rest of the region but also demonstrate EFACEC’s commitment to providing quality and customised solutions to each project it works on.”

Xiande Li, chairman of JinkoSolar, said: “We are growing our market share and reinforcing our leadership position in Chile and other emerging PV markets with this project.”
