摘要

As the 143 MW Bumbuna II hydro-power project (Bumbuna II) in Sierra Leone enters the final stages of development, ElectriFI, the Electrification Financing Initiative, has committed US$ 3.5 million of development capital to finance 50 per cent of the external development expenses needed to reach financial closure. Joule Africa, the project sponsor, signed a 25-year PPA with the Government of Sierra Leone in August 2017 and selected a preferred EPC contractor to construct the project in February 2018. Mandated Lead Arrangers for the debt finance will be selected by Joule Africa shortly and construction is scheduled to begin by the end of this year. Andrew Cavaghan, Founder and Executive Chairman of Joule Africa Ltd, said: "We are delighted to have secured the support of ElectriFI at this critical stage of development as we ramp up to finalize the financing and start construction. Our team is now focused on completing the remaining activities so that the construction of this important project can begin. When complete, Bumbuna II will provide much needed, affordable, reliable and clean power for the people of Sierra Leone, where access to electricity is currently less than 20 per cent."
