Santo Domingo.- The Government, through Edesur Dominicana, began a survey in the section El Montazo, belonging to the municipal district of Los Fríos, in the province of Azua, with the purpose of providing electricity to that community in the Central mountain range.

The process began last April with a visit to the sector by the general manager of Edesur, José Luis Actis. Subsequently, a technical team from the distribution company visited El Montazo on two occasions to evaluate the technical and commercial feasibility of the project and advance the engineering development for the extension of the electrical grid to that area. The steps to finalize the initiative, whose budget exceeds 10 million pesos, include the raising of poles, the placement of the electric wiring and transformers, as well as the installation of meters and the contracting of each user of the service.

El Montazo is a section of the municipal district of Los Fríos, belonging to the municipality of Padre Las Casas, Azua. Edesur is working to extend the electrical service to other communities in that same demarcation and others within its concession area that, because they are very distant from the existing networks, still do not have the service.

Edesur ratifies its commitment to work in favor of communities that do not have electricity to be incorporated as service customers through the installation of electrical networks.
