What project value did the 2021 report hosted by InvestChile give for the entire Cerro Dominador solar complex?
Cerro Dominador combines a 110 MW solar-thermal tower with a 100 MW photovoltaic plant in Chile's Atacama Desert. A Reuters report republished by InvestChile at the June 2021 inauguration described the development as a US$1.4 billion project; a 2018 Inter-American Development Bank study reported the same figure. It applies to the combined 210 MW complex, not just the solar tower, and neither report presents it as an audited final account.
