non-conventional renewable energy: Solar Chimney in Chile. all know how important it is to diversify the energy matrix of our country, yet all is said but nothing is done, not enough to pass in the Senate a bill that forces in Chile generate 10% of energy by renewable means by 2024, apparently lived rationing in the 90's was not enough to take measures to resolve the underlying problem. The National Institute of Statistics (INE), in your newsletter on June 16, 2006, announced the distribution of electricity consumption in Chile. This study yielded the following results:
The generation of these 51,575 GWh, Chile's generated as follows:
is, the solar energy in Chile is not being considered, it is wasting energy potential in the north of our country. It is good that wind power is the open road but is it enough?, do not know, will be the subject of study for later.

A great alternative power generation is solar energy, due to low investment costs of both generation and maintenance.
my point is that we must seize the north of our country by industry high solar radiation as shown below.
This energy can be harnessed in many ways, small-scale or large-scale household level industrial and mining. My point is made elsewhere in the world, and of course Chile can not be left behind.
last year submitted the draft Development Fund for Scientific and Technological Advice (Fondef) called "Building a scale from Solar, clean and renewable resources, which is based on the construction of a great fire of about 1000 meters high and at its base, covering a large area, is a kind of greenhouse air temperature rising making it up through the chimney, and turn this air can spin turbines to transform that energy into energy supply.
and maintenance costs are obviously muchomenores generation compared to conventional power generation, from $ US_ from 0.4 to 0.7 cents / kWh. my point is that we must seize the north of our country by industry high solar radiation as shown below.

What today is being expressed is to build this fireplace supported on a hillside in the sixth region, however, I think the best option is to build it between the first and third region so as to take on a higher radiation solar and this also make a contribution to SING.
Now the main reason to do in the north of our country, it is because mining is the sector that consumes more electricity with an Approximately 32.3% of total consumption in Chile.
I think this alternative is that Chile must continue to avoid energy crisis like we are living now, innovative power generation alternatives and we do not have to rely on neighboring countries to illuminate our homes, therefore, to consider construction of a nuclear plant would be as prepared to face a similar case as we are living now with Argentina.
