The first concession Colorado covers 16,800 hectares in the region of Antofagasta, 1,000km north of Santiago. The second concession San José I is spread over 74,801 hectares located in the metropolitan area about 50km east of Santiago, whereas the third one Yeguas Muertas,  with 74,101 hectares situated between the Metropolitan and the O'Higgins regions, is 70km southeast of Santiago, 20km east of El Teniente mine and 40Km from Rancagua.

With these three new concessions, Enel Green Power confirms its leading position in geothermal development in the Chilean market.

Geotermica del Norte (GDN), a subsidiary of Enel Green Power, is about to begin the construction of the first geothermal plant in South America. It is a 40MW facility named Cerro Pabellón located in the region of Antofagasta. Together with its other subsidiary Empresa Nacional de Geotermia (ENG), Enel Green Power now holds eight geothermal concessions in Chile.
