Abstract

According to the 2011 Rural Electrification Project conducted by the Ministry of Energy and Mines (MEM), around 36.6% of areas in the high Andean rural area of Peru have very low access to electricity. Since this problem could not be resolved through technological initiatives, a management-based solution is being sought. The proposed methodology identifies electrical power deficiencies by collecting data from the National Institute of Statistics and Information (INEI) at a national, regional, provincial, and particularly, district levels. A proposal was presented based on project management established by the project management institute (PMI) methodology, which has been simulated using HOMER software. The results obtained were compared with the previously obtained results, and it was found that the proposal improves the access to rural power significantly through a wind-photovoltaic hybrid system.
