This project will target three sections of the national grid for upgrading and improvement by rehabilitating sub-stations and constructing new ones. Additionally, a diesel power plant will be modernized and a tower cooling system installed at the Roseires hydroelectric station. More reliable supplies of electricity will help boost agricultural and industrial production, thus spurring socio-economic development.
