After several decades of stability and growth, in 1999 Côte d’Ivoire began to suffer from political strife and the effects of a brutal civil war. However, in 2011 the country began to once again stabilize and experience solid growth. To fuel its economic expansion and increasing demand for electricity, Côte d’Ivoire recognized it needed to increase its gas supplies.
The Compagnie Ivoirienne de Production d’Electricité (CIPREL) was established in 1994 as the first independent power producer in Côte d’Ivoire. A public-private partnership (PPP) agreement enabled it to expand the capacity of the thermal power plant while improving its efficiency. CIPREL IV was commissioned in February 2016 and by the end of 2016 was providing power to 120,000 additional homes per year while reducing greenhouse emissions equivalent to 180,000 tons of CO2 per year.
