Title: Worldwide Market Research Report 326 / 356<br />

• A consortium of American and Japanese firms have agreed to build a 220-MW power<br />

station in Tema, Ghana. KMR Power (operator), EPDL, and Japan's Marubeni<br />

Corporation will build, own and operate the $200-million IPP facility.<br />

• The 75-MW Garafi hydroelectric facility was inaugurated in Guinea in July 1999. It is<br />

the country’s largest hydroelectric facility and will supply power to Conakny, Guinea’s<br />

capital. Plans for a larger (900-MW) facility downstream of Garafi on the Konkoure<br />

River are being discussed. A feasibility study for the Kaleta project has been<br />

completed, and the project, which would be built on a BOT basis, would supply<br />

power to the proposed CIFAK Aluminum Smelter.<br />

• Nigeria has signed agreements to develop two IPP projects. Mobil will generate<br />

power from a 350-MW, gas-fired facility located at Bonny in south-eastern Rivers<br />

State. The state-owned National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) will purchase the<br />

electricity generated. Enron has also signed an agreement for the construction of a<br />

540-MW power plant. It was announced in early 1999, that Nigeria will spend an<br />

estimated $144 million to rehabilitate six generating facilities.<br />

CAPP (Central Africa Power Pool)<br />

CAPP (or PEAC) was set up on 12 th April 2003 and involves: Angola, DR Congo,<br />

Congo/Brazzaville, Gabon, Equatorial Guinea, Sao Tome et Principe, Cameroon, Chad,<br />

Rwanda and Burundi. Companies interested in the organization are: Ene-ep, Edel,<br />

Regideso, Aes Sonel, Enerca, SNE, Snel, Seeg, Segesa, Electrogaz, Emae and Stee.<br />

The main objective is to organize and manage an electric power market to satisfy all power<br />

demands in Central Africa through an interconnected electric network.<br />

Nevertheless, the central part of the Africa is the less developed one (perhaps in the world)<br />

and the future projects related to the electrification of the region, are very poor, even if there<br />

is one of them in particular (the Inga II plant) very big: [A09]<br />

• The Canadian firm, Ocelot Energy, and the Societe Nationale des Hydrocarbures<br />

(SNH), Cameroon’s state-owned oil firm, have signed a memorandum of<br />

understanding for the construction of a 175-megawatts (MW) power facility. The gas-
