📋 Tender Overview
o New initiatives will ensure reliable energy and contribute to the development of the Amazon region.The Ministry of Energy and Mines (MINEM) continues to promote measures to promote the energy development of Loreto, through strengthening the regulatory framework and projects that allow improving electricity generation capacity and to guarantee a reliable and continuous service, for the benefit of thousands of families in the Amazon region.
During a meeting between the Minister of Energy and Mines, Waldir Ayasta, and the regional governor of Loreto, Jorge Chavez, the progress of the main initiatives that the sector has been carrying out to expand access to electrical energy in rural and remote communities was reviewed.
Among the short-term actions, the articulated work carried out by the MINEM to reinforce the electricity generation capacity in Loreto stood out, through the maintenance of generating equipment and the incorporation of an additional 10 MW of power, which will allow reaching around 27 MW available to meet the demand of the region.
Ayasta highlighted that Loreto has an important portfolio of rural electrification projects in different stages of development. Along these lines, he reported that this portfolio reaches S/ 850 million in investments, which will promote local development, boost productive activities and generate new opportunities for families.
Likewise, it was reported that work is being done on the regulation that regulates the Coordination of the Operation of Isolated Systems, regulations that will allow promoting new investments in electricity generation and strengthening the competitiveness of the supply.
As part of the long-term vision, the Loreto Electrical Interconnection project is also being promoted, a strategic initiative that will allow the Amazon region to be definitively integrated into the National Interconnected Electrical System (SEIN). Currently, the project is in charge of ProInversion for the evaluation of its viability and execution scheme.
Minister Ayasta reaffirmed MINEMs commitment to promoting a modern, sustainable and scalable electrical infrastructure, and to continue coordinating actions with regional and local authorities to accelerate the implementation of projects that improve the quality of life of the population and strengthen the development of Loreto and the Amazon.
