Within the scope of the Safety and Environment Inspection contract developed by IM3 Peru, our inspectors Edwin Taipe and Rick Jara carried out the inspection of the five hydroelectric power plants managed by ENEL DISTRIBUCIÓN PERÚ. The facilities visited were:
HYDROELECTRIC POWER PLANT DISTRICT PROVINCE
NAVA (527 kW) PACHANGARA OYON
RAVIRA-PACARAOS (150 kW) PACARAOS HUARAL
ACOS (280 kW) SAN MIGUEL DE ACOS HUARAL
CANTA (1,000 kW) CANTA CANTA
YASO (190 kW) SANTA ROSA DE QUIVES CANTA
For more technical details related to hydroelectric plants, see the document attached to the news. (Official document published in 2015 by the Peruvian Energy and Mining Investment Oversight Agency, Osinergmin).
These installations are supplied by C.H. Acos, which is made up of two hydraulic groups, whose total effective power reaches 280 kW and which make it possible to cover the maximum demand, which reaches 222 kW. In addition, it has a mobile generator set with 515 kW of installed power and 350 MW of effective power, to meet emergency or contingent cases of hydraulic generation.
The purpose of these inspections was to verify compliance with the Health, Safety and Environmental (HSE) guidelines that ENEL Peru establishes for its installations, activities, and operational contractors. These inspections allowed us to identify improvements that our client will implement, to ensure a suitable and safe working environment, care for the integrity and health of our own and external workers and the protection of the environment.
