What's new at Azito power plant in Côte d'Ivoire?A 253MW combined-cycle unit is being added to the existing Azito power plant site near Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, as part of the plant’s fourth phase expansion. Launched in March 2020, the $370m expansion project will increase the plant’s capacity to 706MW, accounting for 30% of the West African country’s installed capacity.
Who built the Azito thermal power plant in Côte d'Ivoire?The 453MW plant was developed in three phases, under a build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT) scheme. The Côte d’Ivoire Government contracted the construction of the Azito thermal power plant in 1998 to Azito Energie, a consortium comprised of IPS-WA, ABB, and Electricité de France (EDF).
