Offshore wind for Biobío
Our mission is to build an offshore wind industry that supports a just transition, positive social impact and sustainable development.
What we are doing
We are passionate about unlocking offshore wind in Chile, to support a new industry and secure jobs for future generations.
We are listening to and engaging with the community, government, industry and other stakeholders to create Viento Azul Biobio, a proposed commercial scale offshore wind farm located in the waters off the Biobío region of Chile.
