Applus+ performs technical, administrative, financial and legal supervision of projects as part of the Todos somos Pazcífico initiative in Colombia

The plan will benefit the inhabitants of hard-to-reach municipalities and areas that are not connected to the electricity systems of the departments of Chocó, Valle del Cauca, Cauca, and Nariño.

It is important to highlight that the plan aims to improve the quality of life of the inhabitants of these municipalities in terms of energy, reducing fossil fuel consumption, supporting the use of technology through electrical interconnections, and meeting individual energy needs through the use of renewable energy (solar generation, in this case).

One of the projects that should be highlighted is the supervision of the construction of medium and low-voltage electrical networks, as well as the electrical supply connections of users in the municipality of Gualajo, a project that stands out for its high social impact in an area that is difficult to manage.

In addition, the project for the standardization and inspection of electrical installations in the Municipality of Tambo. It was a challenge for employees as it covers users in different departments of Cauca with hard-to-reach areas. Also, an interconnection project has benefitted a large number of users in this municipality, improving the service and coverage in the municipality, and reaching almost 100% coverage.

Also in the Cauca region, in the municipality of Morales, a project was carried out to normalise electricity networks. This project registered an improvement in the use of resources, going from benefitting 587 users to 822 users, as well as in the municipality of Suarez, benefitting 559 users.

Applus+ also supervises the construction and commissioning of solutions such as solar testing and inspection of individual photovoltaic plants in several of the Municipalities of Chocó, such as Bojayá, providing a quality and reliable service, reaching 4,661 benefited users.

The Todos Somos PAZcífico plan is improving the quality of life of the communities involved, thus enabling the growth of energy generation capacity in Colombia through environmentally friendly sources and following zero emissions strategies.
