Peru and Chile utility service interruptions

Overview

Since early May, water and electricity utilities in Peru and Chile have implemented periodic service interruptions for maintenance and infrastructure upgrades. In Lima, Sedapal has conducted frequent water service suspensions through May, June, July, and August to facilitate reservoir cleaning, pipe splicing, and emergency repairs.

On August 8, Sedapal scheduled further interruptions in Lima for pipe repairs. In San Juan de Miraflores, repairs to a broken pipe affected the Carlos H. Alvarado urbanization, while in the Ate district, repairs impacted various sectors of Pariachi.

Utility maintenance has also expanded to other Peruvian regions. In Piura, EPS Grau reported that throughout July, technical teams cleaned 1,512 linear meters of sewage networks across the districts of Piura, Castilla, and Veintiséis de Octubre to address blockages and normalize wastewater evacuation. In Arequipa, Sedapar announced scheduled water service interruptions for August 18 to perform cleaning and disinfection of reservoirs and cisterns, specifically affecting parts of the Sabandía locality.

Electricity providers have also scheduled outages. Pluz Energía conducted planned blackouts in Lima and Callao throughout late May, while state-owned Seal managed power interruptions in the Arequipa region during the same period. In early July, Chile’s Enel carried out electricity maintenance in several Santiago communes. Water utility maintenance in Chile also included planned outages by Aguas Andinas in early July for valve replacement work.
