New Public Tenders of the Ministry of National Assets, for the Development of Renewable Energies
  by Carey

With the purpose of promoting the development of clean energies, the Government is preparing new public tenders of State-owned land, to award lots in 20 different properties (see summary table at the end). This offering is significant because more than 40% of the installed capacity in renewable energy generation is on State-owned land. Currently, there are 200 executed contracts for about 80,000 hectares of land for this type of project. For more information about current or opened tenders click here, and for future tenders, click here.

“Reserva Eólica Taltal” is the public tender with the largest number of lots, and the following provides more information on this process.

On December 28, 2020, the Ministry of National Assets (Ministry) approved the definitive Tender Rules for this process (the "Rules"), by means of the Exempt Resolution No. 509. On June 14, 2021, by means of the Exempt Resolution No. 312 the Rules were modified concerning the Evaluation Factors and Weighting of the Offers as well as the Tender Schedule. To review the final text of the Rules (in Spanish), click here.

The Tender Schedule (the "Schedule") establishes a Q&A period which ended on July 14, 2021, and August 6, 2021, as the last date for introducing rectifications, amendments or additions to the Rules, the same day on which the Ministry shall respond in writing to the questions formulated during the Q&A period.

Although the Rules are definitive, they may still be subject to change due to the abovementioned. As of this date, the Rules contain the following information that we expect will be useful to you:
