Planeamiento de Pepueiios
Sistemas Ehktricos
Con la finalidad de lograr un adecuado uso de 10s
escasos recursos econ6miccs y financieros es
necesario elaborar el Plan National de Electrificaci6n
Rural, el que comprenda todos 10s proyectos de esta
naturaleza. En general 10s proyectos de elec-
tridicaci5n rural pueden clasificarse en:
a) Eiectrificaci6n de Valles
b) Electrificaci6n de Pequefios Sistemas
c) Electrificaci6n de Localidades Aisladas.
Electrifk~i0n de valles. Son proyectos de impor-
tante magnitud, que cubren valles en 10s cuales se
encuentran ubicados numerosas loc&idades y
poblaci6n dispersa.
Existen valles en 10s cuales, ademks de las cargas
el&tricas comilnes coma son aquellas de equipos
agrkolas (ejemplo: pequefios molinos), alumbrado,
etc., existen demandas de energia para bombeo de
agua subterrsnea. En general 10s proyectos rurales
que permitan obtener agua parz, irrigacGn, son 10s
m&s atractivos, algunos de estos proyectos son: Valle
de Chincha, Valie de Ica, Valle de La Yarada y Valie
de Magollo.
Ekctrificacih de pequeiios sistemas. Definimos

trw ubicados en la serrania de1 Peti y comprenden
cargas el&3kas principalmente para servicio
domiciliario y alumbrado pdblico.

numerosas poblaciones aisladas, que para electri-
ficarlas es necesario implementar una central elec-

Coal is not used for electricity geneiation in
Peru. It does not constitute an economical
source for rural electrification due to the fact
that the equipment required is designed for
capacities much higher than those of the ruraY
loads.
Planning Small Electrical Systems
To obtain the best use of the scant economic
and financial resources, it is necessary to design
a national plan for rural electrification, covering
all projects of this nature. In general, the rural
electrification projects can be classified as:
a) Electrification of valleys,
b) Smali electrification systems
c) E!ectrification of isolated communities.
Electrification of valleys. These are projects of
importance, covering valleys where there are
numerous communities and population is spread
out. There are valleys where, besides ttle com-
mon electrical loads such as agricultural equip-
ment (e.g. small windmills), illumination, etc,
there are energy demands for underground water
pumping. In general, rural projects to obtain ir-
rigation water are the most attractive, Some of
these projects are in the Chincha Valley, Ica
Valley, La Yarada Valley, and Magolio Valley.
Small electrification systems. Small systems
are defined as those projects which serve several
neighboring communities located in the area of
influence of a small powerplant. In general, these
projects are located in the mountains in Peru’ and
they serve mainly domestic and public illumina-
tion loads.
Electrification of isolated communities. There
are a number of isolated communities needing in-
stallation of a small electric powe:-plant to pro-
vide electrification to each one of them.
Definition of Small Electric System
A small electric system is the aggregate of all
the works required for generation, subtransmis-
sion, transformation and distribution of electric
power to be installed in an area where several
communities may be supplied frclm a common
source of energy. This area of influence is called
a mini-region.
The power installations preferably consist of
mini-hydropower plants with installed capacity of
up to 1000 kW, without limiting them to this
capacity. There will be systems with a higher
capacity demand, but they are rural in character
