subject: Energy Dilemma Is Worrying Cosmopolitan Mining Sphere [print this page] Global mining firms say energy vulnerability is a risk they worry about in one of the last relatively unexplored countries, which is thought to still have big undiscovered deposits even after centuries of mining. Peru is the worlds No. 2 producer of copper, zinc and silver, and No. 6 in gold. Peru is banking on $50 billion in mining investments to propel its economy forward, but many new mines could literally be left in the dark unless the government jump-starts electricity generation. Without swift action, policy makers and executives say Peru could suffer the same fate in 2017 as South Africa in 2008 or Chile in 2011, when power crises disrupted mines and threatened to roil global metals markets. Five years may sound like plenty of time, but not in the slow-moving world of dams and pipelines.Unclear regulations, too much reliance on the still nascent natural gas industry, and stiff environmental opposition to the routing of new transmission lines and generation plants have stymied construction. Though rarely admitted publicly, potential electricity shortages in Peru are as much of a concern for miners as the hundreds of towns that have objected to new mines from being built over fears they will pollute or use up scarce water. Some nervous miners are even building their own power plants. To tap Perus vast mineral reserves, the government first must ensure there will be power for all of the new mines planned by private companies. Nobody is watching the whole system. There is nobody doing overall planning for the electricity sector, said former Mines and Energy Minister Carlos Herrera. The economic development that the country expects to have could really be slowed down by a lack of electricity and, fundamentally, planning, Herrera said. Installed capacity rose only 1 percent last year while demand leapt almost 10 percent in an economy that has surged for much of the past decade at rates similar to China.
