The National Electricity Company – ENDE Corporation, through its subsidiary ENDE Transmission, is moving towards a new energy matrix based on clean energy through the implementation of the project “Vinto–Mazocruz line division and Patacamaya substation”. This project is strategic for the incorporation into the National Interconnected System (SIN) of the energy that will be generated at the future Patacamaya Solar Plant, located in the municipality of the same name, in the department of La Paz.

The implementation of this line-division project will allow the execution of a complementary project to enable a new withdrawal point for the local distributor DELAPAZ, which will help strengthen the electricity supply in the Patacamaya region and its surroundings. It will also contribute to improving the operational stability and capacity of the system, supporting the industrial and population growth of the highland region.

The interconnection work of the Patacamaya Solar Plant, under the responsibility of ENDE Transmisión, is a medium-term project that has reached 58% physical progress and will be put into operation when the photovoltaic plant is completed and/or when DELAPAZ enables the withdrawal of energy.

ENDE Transmisión is moving forward with this project in response to ENDE Guaracachi’s request to enable the connection of the solar plant, part of the photovoltaic complex “Planta Solar Patacamaya”, which will have a capacity of 121 MW.

With an investment of more than Bs 83 million (mn), the project is part of the national government’s actions to meet the growing electricity demand nationwide and strengthen the National Interconnected System (SIN), diversifying the energy matrix with renewable solar energy sources.

ENDE Corporation and its subsidiaries ENDE Transmisión and ENDE Guaracachi thus reaffirm their commitment to the country’s sustainable energy development, carrying out projects that modernize the national electrical infrastructure and enable the integration of renewable energy projects that protect the environment.
