Peru Minem-MEF Still Evaluating Cálidda Addendum for Seven Regions

Peru's Ministry of Energy and Mines (Minem) and Ministry of Economy and Finance (MEF) continue to evaluate the addendum to Cálidda's natural gas distribution contract covering seven regions. The key dispute is how to recognize the value of infrastructure Cálidda installs, with differences with regulator Osinergmin unresolved; Minister Guillermo Shinno has not confirmed a signing date. This delays expansion of natural gas networks, affecting energy access and investment certainty.
