The project was launched by ProInversion to build natural gas or fuel oil-fired peaking power plants to supply power to the National Interconnected System (SEIN) in an electrical emergency.

The public tender aims to award a build-own-operate (BOO) contract for 20 years for the Pucallpa Thermoelectric Power Plant, which is in Ucayali, with an output capacity of 35 to 40 megawatts (MW), and the Puerto Maldonado Power Plant, which is in Madre de Dios, with a projected capacity of 15 to 18 MW.

The prequalified companies are Cobra Instalaciones y Servicios (Madrid, Spain), the consortium Energia del Peru, and the consortium Servicios Integrales de Energía. Proinversion will grant the final award on October 27.

After the award date, there is a period of 60 days for the signing of the contract, after which the awarded company has 32 months for the commissioning of the power plants.

Peru has a thermoelectric installed capacity of 3,393 MW. In planning and engineering phases, Peru has projects totaling 4,345 MW, including the 200-MW Eten project; the 400-MW Ilo project in the south; and in the 200-MW Talara project in the north.
