Background

In October 2018, the electricity production concession agreement for the design, financing, construction, launch, operation, and maintenance of the future power station was signed.[8]

In June 2019, the first stone was laid for the future power station of Kékéli (Kékéli meaning “daybreak” in the Mina language). The plant was expected to supply sufficient electricity to more than 250,000 Togolese homes.[8]

The project was split into two phases: the first phase of 47 MW was expected to be operational in the third quarter of 2020, and the second phase, expected to be operational in the third quarter of 2021, adding 18 MW with an estimated annual production of 526 GWh, turned the plant into a combined cycle plant.[9]

In April 2021, the Eranove Group put into operation the 47 MW gas turbine of its Kékéli Efficient Power plant.[10]
