The projects under Group 1 are: the 500 kV Miguel Grau – Pariñas line and Pariñas 500/220 kV substation expansion, which will improve supply reliability in Talara/Pariñas and Tumbes while increasing wind power evacuation; the 220 kV Felam – Tierras Nuevas – Salitral links to bolster the system at 220 and 60 kV levels in Motupe–Olmos under N-1 contingency criteria; the new 220/60 kV Palián substation and associated links, extending transmission reinforcement in Huancayo; and the 220 kV Muyurina – Mollepata connection, strengthening reliability in Ayacucho.
The selection will prioritize the bidder offering the lowest total service cost, who will assume responsibility for design, financing, construction, operation, and maintenance of the works. The timing aligns with an ongoing adjudication timeline extending through 2027 for 18 projects divided into four groups, cumulatively valued above $900 million.
ProInversión’s advancing portfolio aims to stimulate private investment inflows, while addressing energy supply challenges and supporting renewable integration. These transmission projects are critical for ensuring efficient electricity delivery in regions with growing demand and renewable potential, underpinning Peru’s broader energy transition and economic growth objectives.
