El Romero Solar, 125 kilometers north of La Serena, Chile. This 246-megawatt photovoltaic plant supplies the Google Data Center in Santiago with 100% of its electrical energy needs (80 megawatts).
Amanecer Solar CAP, near Copiapó, Chile. This 100-megawatt photovoltaic plant supplies the majority of the power to the nearby Cerro Negro Norte iron ore mine.
Parque Solar Carrera Pinto (foreground) and Parque Solar Fotovoltaico Luz de Norte (background), northeast of Copiapó, Chile. 97-megawatt Carrera Pinto and 141-megawatt Luz de Norte supply power to Chilean population centers via the Sistema Eléctrico Nacional (SEN).
Transmission towers, Atacama Region, Chile. New transmission lines move renewable energy to population centers in southern Chile via the Sistema Eléctrico Nacional (SEN).
Cerro Dominador, 25 kilometers west-northwest of Sierra Gorda, Chile. Constructed around a 252-meter-high receiver, this 110-megawatt concentrated solar plant includes 17.5 hours of molten salt storage capacity, and is part of a hybrid facility that incorporates a 100-megawatt photovoltaic plant.
Parque Eólico Valle de los Vientos, near Calama, Chile. A 90-megawatt wind farm, comprised of 45 wind turbines, delivers its power to the Sistema Eléctrico Nacional (SEN).
Pampa Elvira Solar, Minera Gaby, 120 kilometers southwest of Calama, Chile. This 27.5-megawatt solar thermal array supplies the majority of the thermal energy needed for the electrowinning process at Minera Gaby.
Mina Chuquicamata, north of Calama, Chile. A small section of the mine pit reveals the vast quantity of waste rock produced as a result of open-pit copper mining.
Mina Zaldívar, 175 kilometers southeast of the city of Antofagasta, Chile. In 2020, this became the first copper mine to operate with 100% renewable energy including wind, solar, and hydro sources.
Proyecto Solar San Andrés, 25 kilometers northeast of Copiapó, Chile. This 50-megawatt photovoltaic plant uses a single-axis tracking system in north-south orientation so that the panels follow the movement of the sun in an east-west direction.
Changing Perspectives: Atacama Renewable Energy & Mining in the High Desert of Chile
Jamey Stillings
Atacama: Renewable Energy and Mining in the High Desert of Chile represents a new chapter of Changing Perspectives.
My work spans fine art, documentary and commissioned projects. A passionate curiosity about people, cultures, technology, and the environment is a guiding force in my photography and life. I build well-executed productions paired with an approach that encourages collaboration and is open to unexpected opportunities. Increasingly, I seek projects that provide the occasion to study a subject in depth. This may be realized by documenting the evolution of a subject for years, or by recording the intensity of a single day. Within a diverse range of photographic interests, my project work focuses on issues of sustainability, in particular, renewable energy.
Changing Perspectives: Renewable Energy and the Shifting Human Landscape is my current long-term project.
Chile produces a third the world’s copper and has one of the largest known lithium reserves. Each day, we utilize Chilean copper and lithium in our cars, computers, and smart phones. Northern Chile’s mining industry is heavily dependent on imported coal, diesel and natural gas for its energy. Yet, the geography of the Atacama Desert provides Chile with excellent solar and wind potential. New renewable energy projects are supplying electricity to the norther grid, electricity and solar thermal energy directly to mines, transmitting power to population centers in the south, and reducing mining’s dependence on fossil fuels. As the cost of solar and wind electricity production has dropped below that of coal, renewable energy is now a viable economic opportunity for mines with the added benefit of reducing the industry's carbon footprint.

观念的改变：智利阿塔卡马沙漠中的新能源与采矿业
Jamey Stillings
阿塔卡马：智利阿塔卡马沙漠中的新能源和采矿业代表了人们观念的改变。
我的作品涵盖美术、纪录片和委托项目，对人、文化、技术和环境的强烈好奇心是我摄影和生活的指导力量。我建立了一个良好的执行体系，寻求各种合作，并对意想不到的机会持开放态度。我寻求各种机会以便深入研究不同主题项目，包括记录某一个主题多年的演变，或者进行一整天的高强度拍摄等。在不同的摄影兴趣范围内，我的项目工作集中在可持续发展问题上，特别是可再生能源。观念的改变：智利阿塔卡马沙漠中的新能源与采矿业是我目前正在进行的一个长期项目。
智利的铜产量占世界三分之一，锂矿储量也是世界之最。每天，我们的汽车、电脑和智能手机都在使用智利的铜和锂，智利北部的采矿业严重依赖进口煤炭、柴油和天然气作为能源。然而，阿塔卡马沙漠的地理环境为智利提供了良好的太阳能和风能潜力，新的可再生能源项目正在向北方电网供电，电力和太阳能热能直接供应矿山，向南部的人口中心输送电力，减少矿业对化石燃料的依赖。由于太阳能和风力发电的成本已经低于煤炭，可再生能源为采矿业提供了新的经济机会，而且还能减少该行业的碳足迹。
1.El Romero 太阳能电站，位于智利拉塞雷纳以北125公里处。这座246兆瓦的光伏电站为圣地亚哥的谷歌数据中心提供100%的电力需求（80兆瓦）。
2.智利科皮亚波附近的Amanecer太阳能CAP，这个100兆瓦的光伏电站为附近的Cerro Negro Norte铁矿提供大部分电力。
3.智利科皮亚波东北的卡雷拉平托太阳能公园(前景)和卢斯德诺特太阳能公园(背景)，97兆瓦的Carrera Pinto和141兆瓦的Luz de Norte通过国家电力系统(SEN)向智利人口中心供电。
4.智利阿塔卡马地区的输电塔，新的输电线路通过国家电力系统将可再生能源输送到智利南部的人口中心。
5.Cerro Dominador，位于智利Sierra Gorda西北偏西25公里处。这座110兆瓦的聚光太阳能电站围绕着一个252米高的接收器而建，包括17.5小时的熔盐储存能力，是一个混合设施的一部分，其中包括一个100兆瓦的光伏电站。
6.智利卡拉马附近的Eólico Valle de los Vientos公园，一个由45台风力发电机组成的90兆瓦的风力发电场，向国家电力系统（SEN）提供电力。
