📋 Tender Overview
o MINEM plans to complete 8 projects that will benefit approximately 47 thousand Peruvians in various regions of the countryThe Executive, through the Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM), continues to execute the National Rural Electrification Plan, with the objective of expanding access to electrical service in isolated and border population centers, contributing to closing gaps in the Andean and Amazonian areas of the country.
By July 2026, the MINEM foresees the completion of 8 rural electrification projects, with a total investment of S/ 232 million, in the regions of Amazonas, Ayacucho, Huancavelica, Loreto, Moquegua and Puno, benefiting about 47 thousand citizens.
With the implementation of these initiatives, the percentage of rural homes with access to electricity will increase to 90.2%, as part of the sectoral policy aimed at guaranteeing universal access to energy.
The Executive pointed out that, despite the progress shown, there are still important challenges in the Peruvian Amazon, particularly in the Loreto region, where various communities located in riverside areas have limited or no access to electrical service, which restricts their social and productive development.
Faced with this situation, the sector promotes innovative solutions through non-conventional renewable energies or private generation initiatives at a local scale, which will allow electricity to be supplied sustainably to populations settled on the banks of the rivers.
In this sense, the Government highlighted that the implementation of this type of energy solutions will contribute to effectively integrate deep Peru, providing decent conditions for the development of thousands of families that have historically been excluded from access to basic services.
The MINEM will continue to promote more electrification projects throughout the country, because energy is inclusion and drives development, without it it is not possible to access basic services such as health and education, nor productive development, nor real opportunities.
