Harrisburg, Montserrado County – Contractors building a gigantic electricity station at the Mount Coffee electricity plant have been warned against failing to meet the completion date of March 2020, at which time Transco CLSG power transmission line will be commissioned. The CLSG line will be a 225 KV double circuit that will produce 486 megawatts of electricity. The power will be transmitted from Cote d’Ivoire to Liberia, and then to Sierra Leone and Guinea. However, when the lines are on, TRANSCO CLSG will bring in the electricity to the sub-stations while LEC would sell to customers based on a transmission service agreement with TRANSCO CLSG and Power Purchase Agreement with Cote D’Ivoire. At the same time, Hannah Roth, Project Manager of the German Development Bank (KFW), expressed confidence that the deadline will be met.
