Because both participating companies did not comply with the specifications, in Guatemala the bidders were disqualified in the photovoltaic solar energy tender.
Total Eren Guatemala, S.A. and Corporación Klondike, S.A. presented their bids in the tender for the supply of electricity generated by photovoltaic solar systems, up to a maximum of 110 MW under the BOT modality.
Because of the complaints filed in the tender to supply photovoltaic solar energy, the Public Ministry of Guatemala conducted legal proceedings in the headquarters of the Inde, which could affect the continuity of the process.
The non-tax exemption of equipment that generates solar energy, together with the gaps in its regulation, are some of the factors that make investments more expensive in Nicaragua.
