Congolese firm Tinda Energy has finalized a financial agreement with the Chinese engineering company Complant to advance the Ignie 2021-2046 project, a 65 MW renewable energy initiative in the Republic of Congo (RoC).
The project, located in the Ignie Special Economic Zone (SEZ), will produce 55 MW from a hybrid solar power plant and an additional 10 MW from a biomass facility.
Spread over a 100-hectare area designated for renewable energy within the SEZ, the project is slated for completion within 18 months, following the arrival of essential equipment.
In discussions with Congolese Prime Minister Anatole Collinet Makosso, Tinda Energy CEO Yannick Jutta highlighted the impact of the project, stating, “The hybrid system will enhance the capacity of Energie Electrique du Congo, our public utility partner, while also providing power to the Maloukou industrial and commercial park.”
