Introduction


Projects in Bolivia

Qollpana's wind farm

PEERR-Qollpana-mujeres.jpg

In 2009, Qollpana was selected as an ideal place to implement Bolivia's first wind park. Qollpana is located in the municipality of Pocona, 122 km from Cochambamba city. Studies over three years concluded that Qollpana has excellent wind potential to set up a large-scale project. This wind farm was implemented by the National Electricity Company Bolivia (ENDE) Corani.

The planning and construction of Qollpana's wind farm is divided in two phases:

Qollpana 1:

In 2011 ENDE Corani started the wind energy project with two turbines of 1.5 MW each. These turbines are licensed by the German company Vensys Energy AG; and marketed by the Chinese company Goldwind.

Qollpana 2:

In December 2014 the Bolivian government signed a contract to start the second phase of Qollpana's wind farm. A high voltage transmission line and eight turbines of 3 MW each have been installed in Qollpana to date. The Qollpana's power output is 24 MW (phase II). The German company ENERCON GmbH installed the turbines and monitors 24/7.

Renewable Energies Programme (PEERR) - GIZ

Since May 2016, the Renewable Energies Programme (PEERR) supports Bolivia improving the regulatory framework for the renewable energies expansion in electricity grid-connections and increasing energy efficiency.

The Program supports Bolivian government in creating better conditions for the renewable energy development, in order to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions as our aim. At the same time, it means a greater diversification of the energy matrix, which in the present is basically fossil - hydro. In addition, within the scope of the Programme, the potential of energy efficiency and its application activities will be identified.

The Program have different intervention levels: at the national level, PEERR will consult the Government about renewable energies regulations and energy efficiency and at the regional level, the programme will advise energy companies and cooperatives in the planning, building and operation of wind and solar photovoltaic projects that are connected to the national grid. In addition, PEERR will also give technical advice on hybrid photovoltaic/diesel systems for people that are far from the grid connection.

In the academic area, the Program will support institutions for training in demand topics, making the educational subjects and the introduction of practical training. Germany has a lot of experience in the field of renewable energies, energy efficiency, technological know-how; which allow us to develop innovative application ideas that may be useful for Bolivia.
