With a global emphasis on reducing carbon emissions, hydropower

has come to the forefront as a means of balancing other forms of
renewable generation. Hydros role in the modern power mix has led
to favorable climates for development in many parts of the world,
translating to building new plants and upgrading existing projects.

Chiles location on the southwest coast of South America provides

it with significant ocean energy potential, which could offer a total
capacity of as much as 264 GW. The country is poised to take actions
that help further its use of clean energy from ocean waves and tides.

REHABILITATION AND UPGRADES

Colombias Guatape hydro facility back on line after fire
Colombian utility Empresas Publicas de Medellin (EPM) brought two

of the eight turbine-generator units at its 560 MW Guatape hydro
facility back on line April 25, after a February fire.

The utility says emergency work to bring the remaining six units
on line is advancing according to schedule, according to BNamericas.

All eight units should be fully functional by September.

EPM says the Feb. 15 fire resulted from an incident with the cables
that take electricity from the powerhouse to the substation.

The plant is in Antioquia Department of Colombia and was built in
the late 1960s. Guatape generates 4% of Colombias electrical capacity,
thus the outage is a serious blow to the countrys electrical grid.

All of your assets need investment

If only life were that simple
Asset Investment Planning & Management
Executives in asset intensive organizations are expected by their board and stakeholders
to fully understand the risks and opportunities related to their asset base. Yet information
about assets is often scattered across multiple departments and systems, making it
increasingly difficult to decide how to best leverage existing assets and where to invest.
Copperleafs Asset Investment Planning and Management solution, C55, is specifically
designed to help asset intensive organizations make risk-informed, value-based investment
decisions. Aligned with the ISO 55000 asset management standard, it helps organizations
realize the highest value from their assets, and select future opportunities that provide the
greatest return to the organization.
