March decisions loom over plans to introduce natural gas within Central America

Cutuco Energy's dream of bringing natural gas to Central America by building an LNG regasification facility and combined-cycle power plant could begin to become reality later in March.

Cutuco -- based in La Union, El Salvador, and with offices in Houston -- is bidding for two electricity-generation tenders, one in Guatemala, the other El Salvador.

If at least the El Salvador result favors Cutuco, a green light will be instantly switched on for construction of the two projects. Delivery of the power will be required within four years.
