Boulaos power plant rehabilitation, Djibouti
Name of the project and location
Boulaos power plant rehabilitation, Djibouti.
Project description
The Boulaos power station is Djibouti’s largest, providing 89% of the country’s electricity, and serves many neighbouring towns, as well as the capital itself. Of the plant’s 13 diesel generators, only three are working to full capacity. The others are either out of order, functioning inefficiently or below capacity, or under testing.
The rehabilitation works will include the purchase of a new diesel generator with an installed capacity of 14 MW, together with a supply of spare parts to increase the flow of electricity from four old generators.
