Erick García, former director of the General Directorate of Hydrocarbons (DGH), argued that the implementation of the gas pipeline is urgent as part of the country’s energy security scheme, which should consider, in addition to Sit-Gas, a coastal gas pipeline to consolidate an energy ring, a gas pipeline to the north and another to the center.
In order not to continue with this annual expense -just so that the tubes do not deteriorate while the trial ends-, García also considers natural gas liquefaction plants and decentralized fuel storage necessary to achieve the long-awaited energy self-sufficiency and reduction of emissions .
“The mechanisms are approved, the decision is yet to be made to guarantee accessible energy to all economic activities and for all Peruvians,” he said on his social networks.
