SERC CHILE Leading solar science for the development of Chile We research and develop advanced technological solutions to transform radiative potential into real progress for the entire territory. Our team SERC CHILE Chile's sustainable future is written with the sun that unites us We research today to ensure a clean tomorrow. We are the bridge between the solar resource and the well-being of our country. Research lines

Radiative Potential (Atacama): Average GHI (e.g., 7.5 kWh/m²/day)

Installed Capacity: Current Solar Matrix (e.g., 10.2 GW)

Grid Efficiency: National Capacity Factor (e.g., 28%)

Decarbonization: CO2 avoided through photovoltaic generation

Our Identity

Scientific Excellence from the World's Most Radiant Desert for the Future

SERC Chile was founded to transform the solar potential of northern Chile into a global energy reality. We integrate the country's most prestigious academic institutions to address the challenges of the energy transition through interdisciplinary research and applied innovation.

Line 1 | Sustainable Solar Solutions
This line seeks to promote the sustainable incorporation of solar energy as a fundamental component of the national energy matrix.
Line 2 | Inclusive Solar Energy Transition
This area addresses the social, territorial, and economic dimensions of the energy transition.
Line 3 | Productive Systems and Sustainable Communities
To develop, adapt, and integrate solar solutions oriented towards productive sectors and communities, focusing on applications for mining, agriculture, industry, transportation, and territories with specific energy needs.
Line 4 | Integrated Solar-to-X Solutions
Development of integrated solutions that articulate solar conversion, storage, monitoring, and control to advance towards sustainable, resilient, and scalable energy systems.
Line 5 | Smart Integrated Solar Systems
Development of intelligent systems for the efficient integration and management of solar energy.
