Argentina power watch
Argentine power producer Genneia held a ribbon-cutting ceremony to officially launch operations at the US$122mn 70MW Puerto Madryn I wind farm (pictured) in southern Chubut province.
The complex, which entered service last month, boasts 20 Vestas turbines and has a capacity factor of 49% with average wind speed in the area of 8.6m/s. Construction began in August 2017 and the pledged startup date had been May 2019.
In the coming weeks, the company is expected to secure authorization to begin commercial operations of wind farms Chubut Norte I (28.4MW) and Villalonga I (50MW). Genneia also is due to receive the commercial nod shortly for the 82MW Ullum solar park.

State nuclear energy firm Nucleoeléctrica Argentina reported that it completed loading 4,560 fuel elements at the Embalse plant as part of an overhaul to extend its life for another 30 years.
The revamp also increases the plant's capacity to 683MW from 648MW.
Embalse completed its first operative cycle on December 31, 2015 after the start of commercial operations in 1984.
