Lima, Peru - November 13, 2024 Chinese technologies have been helping major electricity generation and distribution companies in Lima ensure stable power supply during the ongoing APEC summit as their operation gradually improves following acquisition by Chinese power giants. Pluz Energy, a Peruvian power company, is running to ensure stable power supply to the presidential palace, the municipal government of Lima, and the city's airport during this year's APEC summit. The seven-day event starting from November 10 in Lima will see representatives from 21 member economies gathering in the Peruvian capital. Just several months ago, Pluz Energy was acquired by China Southern Power Grid and its power supply stability had been significantly improved as more and more experienced professionals and management models are introduced into the company. Yang said the improved management models introduced by Chinese companies helped Pluz Energy significantly enhance its power supply capacity, with power outage time seeing a noticeable drop. Luz del Sur, the largest power distributor in Peru, has close business ties with China. The company was acquired by China Three Gorges Cooperation in 2020 and provides power for a China-backed port in Peru. Xue said the company is working towards better operation and is upgrading equipment and importing advanced technologies from China, including video surveillance, unmanned inspection, and smart meters.
