What we do

We develop projects from origination through to Ready-to-Build

Six stages, one team responsible through RTB.

  1. 01

    Land and connection

    We find the site and secure the land and the grid connection position.

  2. 02

    Permitting

    Obtaining all permits needed to begin construction: environmental permit, grid connection permit, sectoral permits, municipal permits and others.

  3. 03

    Engineering and studies

    Development of all engineering and technical, environmental and social studies needed to reach RTB.

  4. 04

    Easements

    Processing, negotiating and obtaining voluntary easements, and imposing line and road easements for the projects.

  5. 05

    Ready-to-Build

    The project is left ready to build: land, connection, permits, engineering and easements obtained and documented, so the buyer can finance and build it.

  6. 06

    Sale

    The projects developed by Lader are sold to IPPs, generators, renewable energy companies and investment funds, at whichever stage of development through RTB each decides to enter.

Less time,less costand less uncertaintybetween the investment decision and construction

Development is the longest and most uncertain stage of a project: three to four years of connection, land and permitting. Lader takes it on in full so each counterparty can focus on its own business: the land, the capital, the energy sale or its own operation.

01

LANDOWNER

Your land, turned into an energy asset

  • Long-term income from leasing, or sale of the land for data centers, without investing or processing permits.
  • Lader provides the capital and takes on the development risk.
  • With leasing, you retain ownership and share in the new use of the land.
Let's Talk
02

INVESTOR OR PARTNER

Capital that materializes sooner

  • Enter projects with documented connection, land and permits.
  • Verifiable milestones and a defined exit at the RTB sale.
  • A team that has already sold to institutional buyers in four countries.
Let's Talk
03

GENERATOR OR BUYER

Projects that can be built

  • Receive an asset ready to build, with the years-long groundwork already resolved.
  • Documentary evidence ready for due diligence.
  • Focus on your core business: building, operating and selling energy.
Let's Talk
04

COMMERCIAL OR INDUSTRIAL CLIENT

Cheaper energy, without investing

  • Savings on your electricity rate through the sale of energy generated on your own site.
  • No capex: Lader invests, builds and operates the system.
  • The client focuses on their core business.

Lo Aguirre Energy Hub

We Power data centers in Chile:we develop where the demand is.

With renewable oversupply and grid congestion in Chile, the scarce resource is no longer generation: it is grid connection, land and permits close to demand. A data center needs all three, plus firm renewable supply. Lader develops them under two models: powered land, selling the ready-to-build development to the buyer’s specification, and powered shell, delivering an energized building where the client installs its own equipment.

100 MW IT Data Center Campus, with room to keep growing. 500 MW grid connection request at 500 kV admitted for processing at the Lo Aguirre switching substation.
