The August 2024 storm severely impacted Enel Chile's distribution network, causing significant operational disruptions across the company's service areas. This extreme weather event highlighted vulnerabilities in the infrastructure and led to widespread service interruptions.
As a direct consequence of the storm's impact, Enel Chile incurred a US $20 million fine from regulators. Additionally, the company committed to US $80 million in voluntary customer compensation to address the service disruptions experienced by its clientele.
These financial impacts, totaling US $100 million, are expected to affect the company's 2024 financial results. Enel Chile is implementing measures to improve grid resilience to mitigate future climate-related operational risks and enhance service reliability.
