Renewable energy jobs at oEnergy

oEnergy’s early history centers on PMGD solar generation, with a portfolio of 23 small solar plants distributed across Chile, most with capacities up to 3 MW, selling energy under the PMGD program (source: triodos.com). By 2022, the company had 135 MWp connected or under construction, 200 MWp in development, and 31 operational PMGD projects (source: eqs-news.com). A CIFI case study indicates that oEnergy planned 24 PMGD photovoltaic plants totaling 72 MWp, of which 12 plants were operational by the end of 2024 with 36 MWp, generating over 46,000 MWh annually and avoiding nearly 19,500 tons of CO₂ emissions (source: cifi.com). Total capacity was expected to reach 42.4 MWp by the end of 2025 (source: cifi.com). In 2022, oEnergy contributed 24 MW to a joint venture with Blue Elephant Energy, expanding the latter’s Chilean portfolio to 161 MW, with projects spread across the Valparaíso, Metropolitana, O’Higgins, Maule, and Biobío regions (source: eqs-news.com). Currently, oEnergy holds a 2.9 GW portfolio of standalone BESS projects and PV+BESS hybrid solutions at various development stages in eight Chilean regions, with some assets ready for construction (source: oenergy.cl). Their development pipeline includes 550 MW of PV+BESS hybrid projects and 750 MW / 3 GWh of standalone BESS projects, in addition to 349 MW of operational PMGD projects in Chile (source: ippjournal.com).

In March 2022, Blue Elephant Energy announced the expansion of its Chilean portfolio, to which oEnergy contributed 24 MW through a joint venture (source: eqs-news.com). In 2023, Triodos published a project profile describing oEnergy’s portfolio of 23 solar stations under the PMGD program (source: triodos.com). That same year, IPP Journal highlighted the ongoing growth of oEnergy Capital in PMGD operations and the development of large hybrid and standalone BESS pipelines (source: ippjournal.com). In 2026, oEnergy’s website described a 2.9 GW pipeline of BESS and hybrid assets across eight Chilean regions, demonstrating a strong strategic shift toward storage (source: oenergy.cl).
