The Owendo gas-to-power plant, boasting a capacity of 125MW, is set to begin construction in June by Gabon Power Company and Wärtsilä. A project timeline has been affirmed, with the operation structured under a build-own-operate-transfer scheme.
The construction of the 125 megawatt Owendo gas-to-power (GTP) plant is scheduled to commence in June. The project’s developers have formalized a timeline for the facility, which involves collaboratively managed efforts by Gabon Power Company and Finland’s Wärtsilä. The project operates under a build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT) Independent Power Producer (IPP) structure, ensuring efficient management and long-term sustainability of the power generation facility.
In summary, the Owendo gas-to-power plant’s development marks a significant step towards enhancing Gabon’s energy capabilities. With civil engineering works commencing in June, this project highlights the collaboration between Gabon Power Company and Wärtsilä, promising a reliable power source upon its completion.
