The Venezuelan government signed an adendum to its contract with the Argentine company Industrias Metalúrgicas Pescarmona (IMPSA) on a Wednesday to reactivate the construction of the Tocoma Hydroelectric Power Plant in Bolívar state, a project that has remained paralyzed since 2014, with the United States driving the recovery effort for the nation's electrical grid.

Simultaneously, Venezuela announced plans to increase the supply of methane gas to its thermoelectric system as part of a broader initiative. According to statements by the vice president on a Thursday, the government aims to deliver approximately 2,000 million cubic feet of methane gas to the internal market by December, with state-owned PDVSA incorporating the fuel into the thermoelectric system by the end of the year.
