The service includes the maintenance and conservation of the systems San Bartolo, San Juan, Huascar, José Gálvez, Julio C. Tello, San Pedro de Lurín, Pucusana e Santa Maria, in addition to the pre-treatment system and the pumping station New LurínThese are essential wastewater treatment facilities in the southern area of Lima. Proper management helps ensure continuity and efficiency of service, reduce the impact of pollution on surrounding communities, and promote the reuse of treated water.
The new contract is part of Acea's consolidated presence in the Peruvian water system and, more generally, in Latin America, where the group serves approximately 10 million inhabitants and employs over 1.400 people, mainly in Perù, Honduras e Dominican RepublicIn the country, Acea already manages water and sewerage services in northern Lima, through the Sedapal contracts for the areas of Comas, first lot, and Callao, second lot, benefiting approximately 4 million people, in addition to operations in the Central Lima area.
Completing the presence in the capital is the Acea's participation in the Agua Azul consortium, of which the group is the majority shareholder, and which is responsible for the collection and purification of water destined for Lima. With these eight new purification plants, Acea is thus expanding its scope of action throughout the Peruvian capital's water cycle, from collection and purification to wastewater treatment.
