COLUN and Copec Flux consolidate their solar energy partnership with the largest industrial rooftop photovoltaic project in southern Chile

The cooperative COLUN and Copec Flux have signed an agreement to develop the largest rooftop solar project in southern Chile, marking a significant step in their commitment to incorporating renewable energy into large-scale industrial processes. The initiative involves installing a photovoltaic system consisting of 4,860 bifacial panels across more than 21,000 square meters of roof space at COLUN’s new plant in La Unión commune, Region of Los Ríos. This system will generate approximately 3,357 MWh of renewable energy annually, helping reduce the plant’s carbon footprint and contributing to its electricity needs. The project aligns with COLUN’s sustainability strategy aimed at enhancing productive growth through energy efficiency. Copec Flux will oversee the operation and maintenance of the system from day one, ensuring continuous monitoring throughout its lifecycle. Both companies emphasize this collaboration as part of broader efforts to promote sustainable development and industrial innovation in Chile.
