The 125MW Owendo gas-to-power plant in Gabon is scheduled to commence civil engineering works in June. The project’s stakeholders have established a timeline for the development, which outlines the expected commissioning date. The Gabon Power Company, a state-owned entity, is partnering with Finland’s Wärtsilä to co-develop the plant using a build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT) Independent Power Project (IPP) model.

The upcoming civil engineering works for the Owendo gas-to-power plant signify a substantial investment in Gabon’s energy sector. With the collaboration between the Gabon Power Company and Wärtsilä, the project aims to enhance the nation’s electricity generation capacity through a strategic IPP approach.
