Turbo Energy, a global provider of solar energy storage technologies, has partnered with Saesa, Chile's largest electric utility, to expand the deployment of smart battery systems in Chile. Their first joint project is the installation of a smart battery energy storage system at Bayas del Sur, a leading berry producer in southern Chile. The system integrates lithium batteries with 200 kW of power and 880 kWh of storage capacity, enabling the plant to optimize energy consumption, reduce fuel dependence, and maintain operations during peak demand periods or grid outages.
Turbo Energy, a global leader in AI-optimized solar energy storage technologies, has partnered with Saesa, Chile's largest electric utility, to expand the deployment of smart battery systems in Chile. Their first joint project is the installation of a smart battery energy storage system at Bayas del Sur, a leading berry producer in southern Chile. The system integrates lithium batteries with 200 kW of power and 880 kWh of storage capacity, enabling the plant to optimize energy consumption, reduce fuel dependence, and maintain operations during peak demand periods or grid outages [1].
The partnership marks a significant step forward in Turbo Energy's expansion into Latin America. The project integrates the smart battery energy storage system (BESS) with Bayas del Sur's existing photovoltaic installation, allowing the plant to manage energy more efficiently and sustainably. The collaboration between Turbo Energy and Saesa aims to advance renewable energy and support industrial decarbonization in Chile [1].
Turbo Energy's Chief Executive Officer, Mariano Soria, highlighted the growing trend among companies to seek effective solutions for stable and sustainable energy flow while mitigating market price volatility. He emphasized that working with a utility giant like Saesa provides a strong foundation for deploying smart BESS solutions for Chile's forward-thinking companies, contributing to the region's economic decarbonization objectives [1].
Saesa's Energy Manager, Camila Trujillo, underscored the importance of the project in advancing sustainable infrastructure and grid reliability for industrial clients like Bayas del Sur. The integration of intelligent solar storage solutions reinforces Saesa's commitment to cleaner, smarter energy systems that benefit both businesses and communities across the nation [1].
This collaboration follows Turbo Energy's entry into the Chilean market in March 2025, where it launched Latin America's first, fully integrated, end-to-end solar energy storage system at the Alto Labranza shopping center. The project showcases Turbo Energy's commitment to innovation and industry disruption, with its flagship SUNBOX representing one of the world's first high-performance, competitively priced, all-in-one home solar energy storage systems [1].
The partnership with Saesa is part of Turbo Energy's broader strategy to expand its smart battery systems across Latin America, leveraging its proprietary technologies to empower residential, commercial, and industrial users to reduce dependence on traditional energy sources and achieve a more sustainable future [1].
