Enel Generación Perú

Enel Generación Perú S.A.A. was a Peruvian power-generation company that operated in the country's electricity sector. The company was formerly known as Edegel and developed its business around the operation of generation assets rather than the direct retail sale of electricity. Its portfolio included both hydroelectric and thermal facilities, giving it a mixed generation profile and allowing it to contribute power to Peru's national grid under varying operating conditions. The company became associated with Enel and was presented as part of the broader Enel Group's presence in Peru. During its period under Enel ownership, it was identified as the largest private electric power-generation company in Peru in the available reference material. Its total installed generation capacity exceeded 1,400 megawatts, making it a substantial participant in the national electricity system. The company's shares were listed on the Lima Stock Exchange under the ticker ENGEPEC1. The business served the Peruvian market through grid-connected generation. Hydroelectric assets formed one part of its operating base, while thermal plants provided another source of electricity production. The available material does not provide a complete plant-by-plant history, detailed ownership chronology, founding date, or a list of chief executives, so those details are not stated here. A major change occurred in 2023, when Enel sold the company's assets to China Southern Power Grid. This transaction ended or substantially changed Enel's ownership of the generation portfolio associated with Enel Generación Perú. The available reference does not clarify whether the legal entity retained its name, was merged into another company, or ceased operations after the asset sale. Consequently, the company's current status is recorded as unknown rather than being classified definitively as active or defunct.
