Enel Chile Reports Improved Q2 Earnings Amid Diversified Energy Mix
Enel Chile reported improved financial results for the first half of 2026, with an increase in both EBITDA and net income. The company achieved $685 million in EBITDA (up 4%) and $272 million in net income (up 11%), despite weaker hydrological conditions due to lower rainfall. The performance was supported by a diversified energy portfolio, including higher renewable generation and gas-fired output. Enel Chile also expanded its gas sourcing strategy with long-term agreements from Argentina and short-term LNG contracts with Shell. The company reaffirmed its full-year guidance for hydro-generation at 10.7 TWh, citing improved conditions in recent weeks. Enel Chile is investing heavily in battery storage projects, with over 450 MW under construction. It also signed a long-term renewable power-purchase agreement to support its energy strategy without altering existing plans.
