The Organisation for the Development of the Gambia River (OMVG) includes Gambia, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau and Senegal. It is in charge of setting up the Energy Project which is based on the following three structures:
- The Sambangalou storage dam, located in Senegal on the Gambia River (128 MW);
- The Kaleta run-of-the-river dam located in Guinea on the Konkouré River (240 MW);
- The related interconnected network to conduct the electricity from both hydropower plants and from the other hydropower projects under development (225kV, 800 MW transit capacity, 1677 km of lines).
The project consists in supporting the OMVG in its Energy Project on the technical, legal and transaction components, and in carrying out a restructuring study for the OMVG.
