Happy second year to the Mbakaou power plant!

This is the second anniversary of the commissioning of the Mbakaou Carrière Small Hydroelectric Power Plant (PCH) (1.49 MW) & associated power lines in Cameroon, a project led by IED INVEST CAMEROON as project developer and IPP - Independent Power Producer.

It was indeed on the 09 March 2022 that the final acceptance of the Mbakaou PCH facilities took place, marking the beginning of commercial operation period. After the successful test phase, the plant was officially inaugurated on 14 April 2022.

This second year of operation is marked by an availability rate of 97% and an optimum service quality to users.

With a production capacity of 1.5MW, the electricity generated by the Mbakaou power plant benefits the surrounding localities as well as the city of Tibati, thus allowing the development of income-generating activities and improving the inhabitants daily lives.

This "pilot experiment" in Cameroon is catching attention and site visits have multiplied this year, including those of university students, cooperation organizations or donors, and in particular the visit of a parliamentary delegation in December 2023 to study the replicability of this type of operation.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE WHOLE TEAM, GOOD CONTINUATION AND LONG LIVE THE PLANT!
