Cameroon: Platinum Power signs Makay agreement

Moroccan renewables developer Platinum Power has signed a framework agreement for development of the 350MW-400MW Makay hydro plant on the Nyong River. The agreement sets out terms of reference for the project and for a power purchase agreement expected to be signed with state utility Eneo. The government signed an agreement with Platinum Power in 2014 for the construction of the hydro complex on a public-private partnership basis. Work will consist of the construction of two dams, a hydroelectric plant and a substation.
