This initiative will benefit approximately 20,000 residents across 15 settlements in the area, improving their quality of life.

The project, with an investment exceeding 53 million soles, is overseen by Peru's Ministry of Energy and Mines through the General Directorate of Rural Electrification, and is coordinated with Hidrandina. The Consorcio Energía Viva will carry out the specific construction tasks.

Upon completion, the beneficiary communities will gain access to safe lighting, enabling children to study at night and fostering local small-scale entrepreneurial activities. Peruvian President José María Balcázar stated at the groundbreaking ceremony that the project reflects the urgency of narrowing social gaps and improving people's quality of life, particularly in vulnerable regions in the north of the country. Also attending the ceremony were Minister of Energy and Mines Waldir Ayasta Mechán, Minister of Housing, Construction and Sanitation Wilder Sifuentes Quilcate, General Manager of Hidrandina Nilton Olazabal Yenque, Mayor of the Chepén Province Julio Correa Chávez, and Mayor of the Chequén Population Center Wilmer Mallca Pérez. All parties agreed that the project will have a direct impact on the social and economic development of the beneficiary families.
