PDVSA plans to deliver 2,000 million cubic feet of methane gas to the domestic market by December, including for the thermoelectric system.
Jannier Viloria, PDVSA's Gas Vice President, stated that methane gas supply is guaranteed '100%' in the country.
The government signed an addendum with Impsa on August 12 to resume construction of the Tocoma hydroelectric plant.
Tocoma construction began in 2007 and was expected to finish in 2014, but is stalled at 87.19% completion according to Transparencia Venezuela.

Tracked scenarios this moves
- Venezuela: Oil Sector Collapse — indicator: PDVSA production drop
What would change the assessment
- PDVSA delivers less than 2,000 million cubic feet of methane gas to the domestic market by December 2025 (within 140 days — PDVSA production reports, Ministry of Petroleum and Mining statistics)
- Tocoma hydroelectric plant does not add 2,640 megawatts to the national grid within 5 years (within 1825 days — CORPOELEC generation reports, Ministry of Energy)
