EPSE is a state-owned energy company belonging to the province of San Juan. It was founded in 2004, with the main objective being to give new direction to the LOS CARACOLES-PUNTA NEGRA project since it had been on hold since the year 2000.

Likewise, EPSE was also founded on the idea of taking care of the various issues related to power generation, including the administration of power produced by the province.

Our company has become largely focused on administering provincial energy resources in accordance with governmental policies established by the Energy Resources Agency (Dirección de Recursos Energéticos).

Along the way, many non-conventional energy projects have germinated as a result of taking various specialized professionals on board.

EPSE has thus transformed into the company that it is today, one that studies, administers and distributes both conventional and non-conventional energy produced in San Juan.
