📋 Tender Overview
Sector ensures supply of natural gas for buses of the public transportation system in Lima and Callao that operate with CNG during the energy emergency.The Government of Peru remains in permanent session to address and contain the energy emergency in the Megantoni gas pipeline, Cusco, adopting measures aimed at guaranteeing the supply of Vehicular Natural Gas (NGV) and protecting the continuity of essential services in Metropolitan Lima and Callao.
In this context, a temporary CNG rationalization process has been established with the aim of optimizing its distribution, ordering the use of the resource and guaranteeing that the supply reaches those who need it most as a priority, especially to more than 2 million homes that have CNG service.
The Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC) announced that, within the framework of these measures, the supply of CNG will be guaranteed for the units of the Metropolitano bus system, the complementary corridors, the AeroDirecto service and conventional transportation buses that operate with CNG.
These provisions seek to prioritize the use of natural gas for mass public transportation and for homes that depend on this resource, thus guaranteeing the continuity of essential services for the population.
Likewise, the Executive has been evaluating additional measures that allow progressively releasing greater CNG capacity, with the aim of gradually expanding the number of benefited buses as long as the emergency continues and supply conditions allow it.
The Ministry of Transportation and Communications reaffirmed that it will continue to permanently monitor the situation and coordinate with the competent entities to ensure the continuity of public transportation and the protection of the supply of natural gas for citizens.
