Impact & Sustainability

Discover how Piura LNG contributes to community development and environmental sustainability

Community Benefits

Piura LNG is committed to creating lasting positive impacts for local communities through job creation, education, and social development programs.

Job Creation

The project will generate hundreds of direct jobs during construction and operation phases, with a focus on hiring and training local workers.

Education & Training

Partnership with Universidad Nacional de Piura to develop specialized training programs in energy, engineering, and technical fields related to LNG operations.

Community Development

Investment in local infrastructure, healthcare facilities, and social programs to improve quality of life in surrounding communities.

Economic Impact

Stimulating local economy through procurement of goods and services from regional businesses and creating new economic opportunities.

Emissions & Renewable Integration

Solar PV Integration

On-site solar photovoltaic systems will be installed to provide renewable energy for terminal operations, reducing the carbon footprint of the facility.

Key Feature: 5MW capacity solar array covering terminal rooftops and adjacent land, providing up to 30% of the facility's daytime power needs.

Flare Recovery Systems

Advanced flare gas recovery systems will capture and reuse gas that would otherwise be flared, significantly reducing emissions and improving energy efficiency.

Key Feature: Recovery of up to 95% of flare gas, reducing CO2 emissions by an estimated 50,000 tons annually while providing valuable fuel for facility operations.

Low-NOx Burners

State-of-the-art low-NOx burners will be implemented throughout the facility to minimize nitrogen oxide emissions and improve air quality.

Key Feature: Ultra-low emission burners achieving NOx levels below 5ppm, representing a 90% reduction compared to conventional systems used in similar facilities.

Emissions Reduction Targets

Carbon Intensity30% Reduction
Methane Emissions45% Reduction
NOx Emissions60% Reduction

Piura LNG is committed to setting ambitious emissions reduction targets compared to conventional LNG facilities. Our integrated approach combines renewable energy, advanced recovery systems, and efficient technologies to minimize environmental impact.

These targets align with Peru's national climate goals and international standards for sustainable energy development, positioning Piura LNG as a leader in environmentally responsible LNG production.
