Power Compact: Investments to improve the electricity grid and expand access to electricity

At the fourth annual review of Senegal’s electricity-sector roadmap through 2035, MCA-Senegal Director General Oumar Diop outlined the expected impact of Power Compact investments. Grid modernization is intended to reduce technical losses, improve electricity transmission and distribution, and help manage energy costs for 12.7 million Senegalese. The program also aims to strengthen SENELEC’s operational capacity, including through computerized maintenance-management tools. The meeting at the Noom Hotel was organized by the Ministry of Energy and Petroleum with support from MCA-Senegal II and coincided with the closing of the Senegal Power Compact Reform Project.
