Lima, January 15, 2018. Enel Distribución Perú has implemented a prevention plan to guarantee energy supply in the areas Pope Francis will visit from January 18 to 21 during his stay in Peru. The plan includes providing maintenance to electrical infrastructure and public lighting, increasing the number of emergency squads, among other actions.

In addition, the company informed that these measures complement the monitoring carried out by its Low-, Medium- and High Voltage Control Centre, which works 24 hours for timely action in case of failures in the grid.
