ICP is a bi-national company that
works to make viable, build and operate Electric Grid line between Colombia and
Panama.
Taking into account the importance
of this project for the region's development and the integration of electricity
markets at this time, ICP is working on the strategic revision of the project
definition, technical and environmental studies and regulatory issues in order
to identify and solve problems that in 2012 jeopardized execution of the
electric grid line.
