Energy Tender Being Prepared in Honduras

The Electricity Regulatory Commission is preparing the documents to tender a supply of firm power, a few months before the current contracts expire.

Tuesday, June 13, 2017

Although the contracts with private suppliers that are about to expire add up to a total of 300 MW, representatives from the Electricity Regulatory Commission (CREE) explained that the tender will not necessarily be for the same amount.

Ricardo Espinoza, president of CREE, explained to Elheraldo.hn that "... the General Law of the Electricity Industry establishes that these contracts can not be renewed and new purchases of energy will be made using an international public tender." 

"... According to projections by the Planning Department of the ENEE, the demand for energy for the period 2018-21 is 272.4 MW, or between 65 and 85 per year."
