Enel Green Power has installed a hybrid energy storage system at its geothermal power plant in Chile. The Cerro Pabellón plant in the Atacama desert was the first geothermal power station in Latin America, operating in the remote location, 4,500 metres above sea level. The new hybrid system uses a combination of a lithium-ion battery and hydrogen fuel cells to store electricity from a solar PV array. It has been installed to provide constant energy to the power station's base camp without the need to rely on diesel generators.
