Project scope and objective
Puerto Cabezas Power S.A. generates electricity in the municipality of Puerto Cabezas in Nicaragua’s Autonomous North Atlantic Region (RAAN). PCP commenced operations in 2001 after winning a tender issued by Empresa Nicaragüense de Electricidad (ENEL) to generate electricity and provide stable energy services to the independent grid that serves the town of Bilwi and neighboring communities.
The IIC loan for up to US$1.5 million will be used to boost electricity-generating capacity to up to 7 MW, which will include the purchase and commissioning of two new 1.7 MW generators, offering the local population a more efficient, more reliable, and cleaner power supply system.
