Beschreibung

The loan will finance the Peruvian side of the Peru-Ecuador power interconnector line consisting in the 500 kV Piura Nueva-Frontera transmission line (270 km) and substation. The project also includes other strategic transmission lines, such as the 138 kV Puerto Maldonado transmission line (160 km) and the 220 kV Valle del Chira substation.

Ziele

The aim is to strengthen the transnational Peru-Ecuador power interconnection as well as other strategic energy transmission lines in Peru. By exploiting the complementary hydrological regimes in both countries, the power interconnector at the border will help to integrate higher shares of renewable energy, and therefore reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while improving energy efficiency and supply security. The project is part of the Global Gateway Investment Agenda, given its critical role in reinforcing energy security in the region and promoting Climate Action in Peru and Ecuador.
