"I am delighted to present to our shareholders clear evidence that the tide has finally turned for Rurelec. We are now looking to reap the benefits of the pain which we have gone through in recent years to bring our Energia del Sur (EdS) plant to maximum output and strong generation of cash flow and profits. The board is focused on generating maximum shareholder value from EdS and evaluating growth opportunities, however we will not lose sight of the need to obtain maximum compensation for our assets in Bolivia.
