ANADEB initiates phase 1 of energy transition project covering 50 multipurpose platforms

(Togo First) - Announced in 2018 by the government, the project involving the hybridization of multipurpose platforms’ diesel engines with a solar system (PHMD-PTFM) is at last entering an operational phase. This phase will begin with feasibility studies.  

The National Agency for Support to Grassroots Development (ANADEB) which is in charge of the project, is recruiting a consulting firm to conduct the studies. 

Total cost of the energy transition project is CFA9.6 billion. It is financed by the Global Environment Facility or GEF (CFA1.3 billion), the West African Development Bank (CFA6 billion), and the Togolese State (CFA472 million in cash, and 1.912 billion in kind which will be contributed to by the targeted communities).  

Set to be implemented over three years, the PHMD-PTFM targets 50 communities that already have multipurpose platforms. In the long run, it should directly benefit 62,500 people, including 500 women forming agricultural cooperatives.
