Friday, 16 March 2018




(Invest in Cameroon) - For the first time since the reorganization of March 2, Paul Biya, the President of the Republic, met the entire newly formed government.

The head of state took the opportunity to prescribe a roadmap to his ministers led by Prime Minister Philemon Yang. " It is imperative to continue the smooth implementation of the program with the IMF. It is also urgent to finalize the implementation of major structuring projects, the Emergency Plan for accelerated growth and the Special Youth Plan. The entry into service of the deep-water port of Kribi and the second bridge over the Wouri bodes well in this regard , "said Paul Biya. He said that much remains to be done with respect to outreach services to the population. Namely, water, electricity, health, road infrastructure, etc.

The President of the Republic explained that the creation of the Ministry of Decentralization and Local Development is part of the perspective of providing a rapid response to the recurring demands of the people. " I expect, in the near future, detailed proposals and a timeline for accelerating the ongoing decentralization process. Said Biya.

EDC claims more than 24 billion FCFA to the Cameroonian electrician Eneo, under the rights of water of the dam of Lom Pangar
Friday, March 16, 2018

(Invest in Cameroon) - Electricity Development Corporation (EDC), Cameroon's state-owned power utility, has already billed Eneo, the concessionaire of the country's public electricity utility, for rights to electricity. water for an amount of more than 24 billion CFA francs, since the start of the exploitation of the Lom Pangar reservoir dam, revealed to the Government Daily , Théodore Nsangou (photo), EDC CEO.

" We are waiting for the payment of this sum. We are working on the file with the government, including the Ministries of Finance, Water and Energy. Especially as the repayment dates begin to run. It is urgent that a solution be found on water rights. He continued.

As a reminder, the Lom Pangar dam, built in the Eastern region, has a holding capacity of 6 billion cubic meters of water. This infrastructure is mainly designed to regulate flows upstream of the Sanaga River, which is home to 75% of Cameroon's hydroelectric potential.

As such, in the event of a drop in water levels in the Songloulou and Edéa dams, the two main dams operated by Eneo, the Lom Pangar waters are requested by the electricity generation and distribution company, which is then billed for the quantities required, exactly as it charges electricity consumption to users.

FIVE AGREEMENTS SIGNED BETWEEN CHINA AND CAMEROON
Posted by China Magazine | Mar 23, 2018



Elected president in 2013, Xi Jinping went to Africa for his first state visit, this time he received for the first visit of a head of state, the Cameroonian Paul Biya. The two men intend to elevate the Sino-Cameroonian relations.

On March 22, 2018, President Xi Jinping met with Cameroon's President Paul Biya on the possibilities of bilateral cooperation to set up new Sino-Cameroonian cooperation axes.

For Xi Jinping, Paul Biya is "an experienced leader in Africa and an old friend of the Chinese people. You are the first African Head of State to visit China in 2018 and the first foreign head of state to visit my country after the close of the first session of the 13th Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and the first session of the 13th National People's Congress of China ".

Xi Jinping said, "We will increase trade and enhance mutually beneficial cooperation in priority sectors. China supports the acceleration of the process of industrialization of Cameroon and encourages large Chinese companies to invest in Cameroon.

For his part, President Paul Biya hailed the Chinese authorities who "gave friendly assistance to Cameroon for its socio-economic development, which brought real benefits to the Cameroonian people." He also announced his support for "The Belt and the Road", and reiterated the principle of one China.

Five cooperation agreements were signed in the presence of the two heads of state by Cameroon and China to consolidate this strategic partnership. China is currently the largest trading partner of Cameroon and the largest investor (in FDI) in Cameroon in carrying out development projects.

Moreover, in 2016, the volume of bilateral trade reached 1 510 billion FCFA (2.3 billion euros). China is present in Cameroon in the fields of drinking water supply, medicine, road and port infrastructure, hydropower, social housing, civil aviation and telecommunications, notes the communiqué of the Presidency of the Cameroon.

Cameroon: ENEO intends to completely clear its debt to Gaz du Cameroun and KPDC "by the end of 2018"
posted the March 26, 2018 by Eugene Shema



The company has undertaken to "gradually clear" its debt since the beginning of the year, "so that the financial balance of the energy sector does not break"
The company Eneo , majority owned by the British Actis (51%), undertook to settle "progressively" its debt towards the managers of the two main gas plants: Kribi Power Development Company ( KPDC ), a subsidiary of the British Globeleq; and Gaz du Cameroun , a subsidiary of the British group Victoria Oil and Gas PLC, according to information provided to Energies Media by an official source.

This debt should be completely settled "by the end of the year" , "so that the financial equilibrium of the sector does not break , " comments our source. "It is necessary that KPDC and Gas of Cameroon can also pay their suppliers" , she completes.

Eneo finalized an "arrears settlement agreement" with KPDC in early February.

KPDC has a 211 MW gas plant in Kribi (South Cameroon), energy sold exclusively to Eneo and injected into the South interconnected grid (RIS).

Gaz du Cameroun (GDC) and its partner Altaaqa Global produce electricity from the exploitation of the Logbaba gas field (Littoral-Cameroun). Last year, Eneo consumed 50 MW of GDC, energy also intended for RIS. Between January 1 and December 31, 2017, deliveries to Eneo accounted for 53% of Logbaba's gas sales.

At the end of 2017, as Energies Media reported , KPDC decided to reduce its production by 100 MW, due to unpaid supply bills of around CFAF 46 billion (around 70 million euros).

In connection with this situation, pending the settlement of a slate valued at hundreds of billions of F CFA due to Eneo by the public administrations, the operator had decided for its part not to renew its energy supply with Gaz du Cameroun from 1 January 2018.

It should be noted, however, that in early January, Eneo was debtor of $ 8.7 million to GDC, debt that the dealer of electricity distribution began to clear. By mid-February, this debt of GDC had already been reduced to $ 5 million .

The subsidiary of Victoria Oil and Gas, which accuses the coup - because Eneo consumed more than 50% of its production before its decision to suspend - hopes that the supplies of the operator will resume once the entire debt has been settled.

On the side of Eneo, it is said that we manage however, in the current situation, to maintain "the balance of supply demand on the RIS" , partly thanks to the "erasing efforts made by our main industrial customer Alucam", can be read in the Eneo Electrical Service Information Note in February 2018

As part of the erasure , the industrial group Alucam - which consumes about 200 MW alone, according to a data communicated to Energies Media - agrees not to consume the electricity provided by Eneo at certain times of the day, during rush hours.

The concessionaire of the electricity distribution service relies heavily on the entry into production - expected - of the Memve'ele dam (211 MW), in order to reduce the production costs on the RIS and consequently the gas supplies that it receives. "Are expensive" . A hope contrary to the wishes of GDC.

Chinese government promised to cancel part of Cameroon's debt
Tuesday, March 27, 2018



(Invest in Cameroon) - The presidency of the Republic of Cameroon speaks about it but, discreetly. " The Chinese government promised to cancel part of Cameroon's debt ," reads the website of the presidency. This after the visit of Cameroonian President Paul Biya in China at the invitation of his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping, from March 22 to 24.

Even if the amount of the remittance of this debt is not yet unveiled, it is noted that this announcement is a relaxation between Yaounde and Beijing. Indeed, during the visit to Cameroon of Yu Jianhu, Vice Minister of Chinese Commerce, from November 29 to December 2, 2017, the Cameroonian Ministry of Economy had revealed that the relationship with China still faces enormous difficulties which constitute bottlenecks.

Among these bottlenecks, there is notably, " the non-compliance with contractual clauses " by the Cameroonian side, on the one hand, and " slowness in the payment of debt service ", on the other hand. Moreover, China criticizes Cameroon for failing to honor its contractual commitments, for example in the framework of repayment mechanisms for loans earmarked for the construction of the deep-water port of Kribi ($ 243.17 billion and $ 301.57 billion). FCfa) and the acquisition of MA60 aircraft (36.43 billion FCfa) in July 2012.

And yet since 2007, China is presented as the first country providing funds in Cameroon. Its direct interventions are estimated at just over 3,000 billion FCfa. This through financial instruments such as loans and grants from the various donors such as the Chinese Government, Export-Import Bank of China, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, Bank of China ... etc.

In 2018, the Cameroonian electrician wants to connect half a million additional people to the electricity grid
Tuesday, March 27, 2018



(Invest in Cameroon) - As part of its 2018 Action Plan, Eneo, the concessionaire of the public electricity service in Cameroon, aims to build 100,000 new connections, to allow half a million additional people to access electricity, announces the company in its newsletter last February.

To do this, we learn, this electricity production and distribution company, controlled by the British Investment Fund Actis, has a 2018 investment budget of 37.5 billion CFA francs. . According to the company, more than 50% of this envelope will be dedicated to the rehabilitation, modernization and extension of distribution networks.

This concentration of Eneo's investments in the distribution network is all the more understandable, explain company officials, thanks to the impoundment of the Lom-Pangar dam (6 billion cubic meters). of water supply), load shedding due to insufficient energy supply has decreased considerably, giving way to multiple incidents on the distribution network, which often deprive the population of electric power.

Electrician Eneo, a subsidiary of Actis, will rely on bank loans to step up investments in Cameroon
Thursday, April 12, 2018



(Invest in Cameroon) - Accompanied by the managers of Eneo, a Cameroonian subsidiary of Actis, David Grylls, Senior Partner in the British group Actis, met on 10 April in Yaoundé, the Cameroonian Minister of Finance, Louis Paul Motaze.

At the end of the interview, Joël Nana Kontchou (photo), general manager of Eneo, explained to the press that the meeting between Mr. Grylls and the member of the government aims to make the inventory of investments of Actis in Cameroon, particularly in the electricity sector. " We know that the quality of service can be improved. For this improvement, we need additional investments. We should already be looking at financing these investments with loans to the bank. So there is talk of having visibility on the Eneo concession. Said Nana Kontchou.

By committing to Cameroon in June 2014, the British Actis fund submitted to the Cameroonian government, an investment program from equity and a long-term loan of nearly 200 billion FCFA. In this vein, Eneo says it has already mobilized short-term bank facilities, up to 16 billion. Actis, the parent company, plans to inject funds amounting to 25 billion FCFA. But on one condition: the effectiveness of extending its concession in Cameroon beyond 2021.

In addition, Eneo is involved, among other things, in the interconnection studies between Chad and Cameroon, the Cholet power plant, which is expected to supply Cameroon and Congo. The subsidiary indicates that it intends to invest 900 billion FCFA in all projects in which it has interests. Half of this global envelope will be used to strengthen and expand distribution networks.

Over a 10-year period (2005-2015), people's access to electricity in Cameroon grew by only 7.7%, according to the AfDB
Thursday, April 26



(Invest in Cameroon) - During the decade 2005-2015, the access rate of the Cameroonian populations to the public utility of electricity went from 46 to 53.7%, an increase of only 7.7%, reveals African Development Bank (AfDB) in its latest country report on Cameroon.

This statistic can be explained by the slowdown of investments in the electricity sector until 2012, a period which was also characterized by the inconvenience experienced by the Cameroonian population connected to the electricity grid, due to recurrent power cuts.

But starting in 2012, the country embarked on a major infrastructure construction program, which has enabled the effective start of at least three dam and other hydroelectric projects in the country.

According to the forecasts of the ADB, also contained in the aforementioned report, these new energy infrastructures will, during the year 2018, improve access to electricity for 2.7 million people.

In the meantime, Actis, the UK investment fund that controls the assets of Eneo, the concessionaire of the public electricity utility, claims since its arrival in the electricity sector in Cameroon (in 2014), the connection to the national grid of more than 2 million new consumers.

Cameroon potential electricity supplier of the CEMAC countries
May 03, 2018

The Cameroonian authorities said Thursday that with the establishment of the National Electricity Transmission Company (SONTREL), Cameroon is increasingly positioning itself as the potential supplier of electricity to the countries of the world. Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC) and Nigeria.


With regard to the existing infrastructures and the entry into operation of the hydroelectric dams of Memv'ele and Mekin (South), Lom Pangar (East) and Warack (Adamaoua) and the others, Cameroon which currently has an installed capacity of 1,200 megawatts (MW) could save an estimated 700 MW by next year.

A "surplus" to supply the Central African Republic, Congo, Chad and Nigeria who need it.

It is therefore to this heavy mission that SONATREL, which has voted a budget of 109 billion CFA francs for the current fiscal year, will begin to fill in May 2018, when 230 agents of the company Energy of Cameroon ( ENEO) responsible for the production of electricity and who still has the responsibility of transport, have been transferred to SONATREL.

Because of the dilapidated infrastructures and their insufficiency, nearly 40% of the electricity produced is lost in transport, informs ENEO.

Failures that SONATREL which has an investment plan of 900 billion CFA francs should rise while Cameroon plans to produce by 2025, more than 3,000 MW of electricity.

Africa Oil & Power Leads The Charge On Energy Industry Evolution

Africa Oil & Power, the continent’s leading platform for energy investment and policy innovation, is coming to Europe for the first time with the Africa Oil & Power Investor Forum. Hosted in London on May 10, the Investor Forum will bring together top government officials, executives and financiers to address critical needs and opportunities in Africa’s hydrocarbons and power space.

The rise of natural gas, a key trend in Africa’s energy sector, will feature strongly at the Investor Forum, as leaders in the industry – including Dr. Oliver Quinn, Director of Africa and Global New Ventures for Ophir Energy and Kevin Foo, Chairman, Victoria Oil and Gas – discuss the role of gas as a new solution for Africa’s power deficit. Gas-to-power and LNG-to-power are quickly becoming vital to Africa’s energy infrastructure and independents, like Ophir Energy and Victoria Oil & Gas, are blazing new trails in the development of Africa’s vast natural gas resources, bringing innovation to gas monetization. The gas-to-power panel will discuss the financing of gas-to-power and independent power projects; promoting the consumption of natural gas; and the potential of public private partnerships.
