Chile is one of the world leaders in electricity generation from renewable sources. With 26% of electricity generated in 2020 from these sources, last year the country met its 2025 target ahead of schedule. Billions of dollars will be invested in new solar, wind and small and medium-sized hydroelectric power plants in the coming years. Investors are increasingly interested in the opportunities in this sector. In Chile there are already six investment funds and one mutual fund focused on renewable energy, which together manage US$250 million. The bulk of these funds are managed by FYNSA AGF through the funds Rockville Energy (US$147 million), focused on solar plants, and FYNSA Energía (US$59.2 million), focused on hydroelectric projects.
