Supply installed in the great north is megawatss 3991, while demand reached 1,988 megawatts. The availability of energy, which exceeds 2,000 megawatts, adding that in the coming months will be in operation Andean power stations and Hornitos, GDF Suez, 50 megawatts each.

Zaldivar also told that Chile and Argentina also discuss the possibility of sending gas from the regasification terminal in Mejillones and Quintero, and achieve energy exchanges between hydropower plants built in the province of Santa Cruz and projects in southern Chile .

"Argentina is open to hear the case of hydroelectric power in the south. Argentina is in the construction of hydroelectric plants in Santa Cruz, and there is interest in Chilean hydropower interconnection," he said.
