- Aurora reached 201.08 MW in tests on October 19, 2026.
- The project represents USD 224 million of investment and expected annual output of 649 GWh.
- Pampino construction is scheduled for June 1, 2028, while Monterrico construction is scheduled for December 1, 2026.
Promigas (COI04PA00021) reached 201.08 MW in technical tests at its Aurora solar project in Chile on October 19, 2026, according to pv magazine Latin America. The result gives investors a concrete test of Promigas' move beyond gas infrastructure into solar generation and battery storage.
Three milestones shape the pivot
The chronology shows how quickly the strategy has expanded. In March 2025, the Aurora project secured a long-term power purchase agreement with Abastible, according to pv magazine Latin America. On May 27, 2026, Promigas completed the acquisition of a renewable portfolio valued at USD 1.1 billion including project-finance debt, as reported by Discovery Alert. The October 19 tests at Aurora are the latest step, with 201.08 MW of net photovoltaic output documented by Chile's grid operator.
Two construction dates matter
Promigas' acquired platform spans 3,500 MW across Chile, Peru and Colombia, including 1,273 MW operating or under construction and 2,250 MW in development, according to Discovery Alert. The next dated milestones are project construction dates: Pampino is scheduled to begin construction on June 1, 2028, while Monterrico is scheduled to begin on December 1, 2026, according to Nyland South Energy.
What does Aurora add to Promigas?
Aurora combines 221 MW of solar capacity with 1,023 MWh of battery storage and represents USD 224 million of investment, according to Diario Financiero. Promigas expects annual generation of 649 GWh, while the battery system can supply electricity for 5.5 hours at full power. The project therefore links a measurable operating asset with a broader expansion plan that still depends on construction, financing and grid execution.
The next execution test
For investors, the central issue is conversion from approved projects to operating capacity. Pampino and Monterrico together represent USD 569 million of declared investment and 2,220 MWh of storage, according to Nyland South Energy. Promigas' investor-relations materials describe the company as a natural-gas infrastructure operator with regulated activities in Colombia and Peru, alongside investment-grade ratings from Fitch and Moody's.
Promigas is an energy infrastructure company focused on natural gas, solar generation and energy storage. Its shares trade under ticker PROMIGAS on the Colombia Securities Exchange.
