25.3.3 Future Power Market and Supply<br />

25.3.3.1 Preliminary remarks<br />

Essentially the following documents were reviewed:<br />

� Mount Coffee Hydropower Plant, Technical and Financial Feasibility Study,<br />

Stanley Consultants, December 2008<br />

� LEC Electric Master Plan, March 2011<br />

� Options for the Development of Liberia Energy Sector, World <strong>Bank</strong>, October<br />

The following points are of interest in the present study:<br />

� The magnitude of the expected future demand for electricity<br />

� The options considered to cover the additional demand<br />

� The identified preferred options.<br />

The review of the three reports will be focused on these issues.<br />
