This new gas turbine, installed by ENI in Côte Matève, increases the capacity of the Congo Power Plant (CEC) - which currently supplies 60% of the energy consumed in the country - from 300 to 500 MW. By increasing the national installed capacity to 650 MW in total - for an overall demand of 600 MW - this generating unit should improve energy supply and reduce load shedding in the country’s two main cities, Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire.
