According to the United Nations (UN) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), Chile is one of the Latin American countries that suffers the most from the effects of climate change. It is for this reason that the sanitary companies have made several investments to face in a timely and effective way, the eventual emergencies of natural origin that affect their clients. The project aims to strengthen the reserves of the potable water production system and increase safety in Santiago's water supply. In rainy seasons the fallen water clouds the flow of the Maipo river, where 85% of the water supply of the sanitary company Aguas Andinas comes from, making it impossible for the company to operate its treatment plants. The project contemplates the construction of a raw water reserve pond facility that will increase the autonomy from 11 hours to 34 hours, when the water treatment plants cannot operate in case of extreme turbidity. The water segment is one of the several segments served by WEG through specialists who are always evaluating opportunities to supply their products and solutions suitable for the most severe applications. In this specific case, WEG through its commercial branch in Chile has supplied five 1000HP motors, 4,160V rated voltage, from the HGF High Thrust line, vertical application on pumps, which will work in these reserve tanks. For WEG, this supply expands its references in the water segment and reinforces the company's technical capacity to develop and manufacture electro-electronic products and solutions for specific market segments.
