About Tranque Sloman

Other, Unclassified Objects, Interesting Places, Historic Object

El Tranque Sloman es una antigua represa hidroeléctrica localizada en el cauce del río Loa, en la comuna de María Elena, Chile, a 186 km al norte de Antofagasta. Fue construida por el empresario alemán Henry Sloman, con la finalidad de abastecer con energía eléctrica a las oficinas salitreras Buena Esperanza, Rica Aventura, Prosperidad, Grutas y Empresa.[1]​

Su construcción, que requirió unos doscientos obreros, se inició en 1905, finalizando las obras en 1911.[2]​ La planta hidroeléctrica fue desmantelada en 1965, y el tranque en la actualidad regula el riego de los agricultores del valle de Quillagua.[3]​ Fue declarada Monumento Nacional el 15 de enero de 1980.
