My name is Astrid Vorphal

2
00:00:02.166 --> 00:00:05.366 position:25% size:50%
I am the project manager for the
Los Cóndores hydroelectric project.

3
00:00:05.366 --> 00:00:08.766 position:25% size:50%
The project is located in the Maule
basin near the mountain range.

4
00:00:11.133 --> 00:00:12.333 position:25% size:50%
We are currently in an area

5
00:00:12.333 --> 00:00:14.366 position:25% size:50%
We are currently in an area called the Generator Room,

6
00:00:14.366 --> 00:00:16.833 position:25% size:50%
which is where we already installed

7
00:00:16.833 --> 00:00:19.466 position:25% size:50%
the two units that we are going to use to generate power.

8
00:00:19.466 --> 00:00:21.366 position:25% size:50%
In other words, water comes in here,

9
00:00:21.366 --> 00:00:23.600 position:25% size:50%
passes through our turbines, is released

10
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:25.133 position:25% size:50%
and we generate the electricity

11
00:00:25.133 --> 00:00:28.200 position:25% size:50%
that is fed into the grid and reaches everyone’s home.

12
00:00:28.200 --> 00:00:29.933 position:25% size:50%
That is in essence our Generator Room.

13
00:00:29.933 --> 00:00:33.900 position:25% size:50%
And we have two units and the project
has a power of 150 mega

14
00:00:33.900 --> 00:00:36.666 position:25% size:50%
which is what we can expect
to inject into the grid.

15
00:00:36.766 --> 00:00:40.266 position:25% size:50%
We already have several
hydroelectric plants in the Maule basin

16
00:00:40.266 --> 00:00:42.666 position:25% size:50%
this is the last one under construction.

17
00:00:42.666 --> 00:00:46.800 position:25% size:50%
Furthermore, there are many people from
the area working in construction

18
00:00:46.800 --> 00:00:49.033 position:25% size:50%
so people can remain in the area

19
00:00:49.033 --> 00:00:51.966 position:25% size:50%
while working on a new project near their homes.

20
00:00:51.966 --> 00:00:54.266 position:25% size:50%
And we also set in motion a project

21
00:00:54.266 --> 00:00:57.900 position:25% size:50%
that was envisioned by Endesa back in 1940

22
00:00:57.900 --> 00:00:59.866 position:25% size:50%
and we are finally developing the idea.

23
00:01:00.033 --> 00:01:03.100 position:25% size:50%
To me, one of our most important assets is people.

24
00:01:03.433 --> 00:01:05.866 position:25% size:50%
I’m talking about the people involved in the project,

25
00:01:05.866 --> 00:01:10.800 position:25% size:50%
but also our neighbors, the people from surrounding areas

26
00:01:10.800 --> 00:01:13.200 position:25% size:50%
because we work with them, we interact with them

27
00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:14.733 position:25% size:50%
and try to ensure there is also

28
00:01:14.733 --> 00:01:16.866 position:25% size:50%
shared value in what we do.

29
00:01:16.866 --> 00:01:20.233 position:25% size:50%
So, for me, it’s important to empower people

30
00:01:20.233 --> 00:01:21.966 position:25% size:50%
through our work

31
00:01:21.966 --> 00:01:25.666 position:25% size:50%
and through their work in different areas.

32
00:01:25.666 --> 00:01:27.600 position:25% size:50%
Social development is very important.

33
00:01:28.533 --> 00:01:33.066 position:25% size:50%
What we have here today is a challenge

34
00:01:33.066 --> 00:01:35.433 position:25% size:50%
we have so many variables at play

35
00:01:35.433 --> 00:01:36.966 position:25% size:50%
which span the technical part of the project

36
00:01:36.966 --> 00:01:40.700 position:25% size:50%
the people, the area where we are located

37
00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:44.100 position:25% size:50%
and without everyone’s passion and commitment

38
00:01:44.100 --> 00:01:45.400 position:25% size:50%
we simply couldn’t do it.

39
00:01:45.400 --> 00:01:48.400 position:25% size:50%
In other words, our team of people has
to remember that every day

40
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:50.000 position:25% size:50%
in order to see this project to completion.

41
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:53.300 position:25% size:50%
For me a great point is creating bonds of trust with people

42
00:01:53.300 --> 00:01:55.700 position:25% size:50%
being able to trust your team and move forward.

43
00:01:55.700 --> 00:01:59.666 position:25% size:50%
In other words, maybe today I’m
in a position of leadership,

44
00:01:59.666 --> 00:02:03.700 position:25% size:50%
but we are all involved in this,

45
00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:08.933 position:25% size:50%
we are all a part of this project
that we are building together.
