This Thursday, October 29,
the President of the Republic, Delcy Rodríguez, reported that Venezuela plans to
recover 432 megawatts (MW) of electricity generation through the installation
of two turbines at the Manuel Piar Hydroelectric Power Plant, known as Tocoma,
as part of the works being carried out together with the company IMPSA.
“We are working and we are going
to show results, not only with the recovery in Macagua, but a
project that is strategic for the development of Venezuela, for the
mining development of our country and has to do with the completion of the Tocoma
Hydroelectric Power Plant (...) there we are expected to recover 432 MW,” he said.
In this regard, he explained that
each of the two planned turbines will have a generation capacity of
216 MW.
Rodríguez reaffirmed that these works are part of efforts to recover the National Electric System (SEN). In turn, he pointed out that both projects represent an investment of more than 300 million dollars by the Venezuelan State.
