Nicaraguan energy and sanitation infrastructure projects

Overview

Nicaraguan state entities are undertaking various infrastructure and sustainability projects focused on energy and sanitation.

ENACAL is implementing a renewable energy strategy through the development of three photovoltaic plants in Malpaisillo, San Isidro, and Nindirí. These plants are intended to generate between 80% and 85% of the electricity needed for water pumping systems. Concurrently, the company is expanding sewage systems in Estelí to benefit approximately 1,200 families.

In the energy sector, the Empresa Nicaragüense de Electricidad (ENEL) completed an 11-month acoustic encapsulation project at the Planta Managua power plant. This project involved constructing enclosures and replacing the roof for generation units 4 and 5 to reduce noise pollution and protect the health of workers and local residents.
