J-Power signs solar VPPA for Tokyo Metro in Japan
Sep 18, 2024 15:26 CEST(ADPnews) - Dec 13, 2010 - Bolivia expects to receive a loan of nearly USD 250 million (EUR 188.1m) from Japan for the construction of a 50 MW geothermal plant in the southwestern Potosi department, Bolivian presidential spokesman Ivan Canelas told official news agency ABI.
The two governments agreed to cooperate on the geothermal project in the Laguna Colorada area yesterday, during the visit of Bolivian president Evo Morales to Japan.
The plant may be expanded to 100 MW in the future, according to a joint declaration, signed by Morales and Japanese prime minister Naoto Kan.
The amount of the loan was not specified in the declaration.
Morales brought to mind that in 2006 Japan cancelled Bolivian debt of nearly USD 560 million.
After more than 10 years, Japan's extending of loans to Bolivia is being resumed, in this case for the installation of a geothermal plant in Laguna Colorada, in Potosi, Morales said.
