Total SA, Europe’s third-biggest energy company, is planning the world’s largest solar farm that won’t rely on subsidies in Chile’s Atacama desert with developers Etrion Corp. and Solventus Energias Renovables.

The 70-megawatt photovoltaic project will cost $200 million and initially sell electricity to Chile’s central power grid, Paris-based Total said today in a statement.
