The Turkish power plant KARPOWER has signed an agreement to supply electricity to Sierra Leone for 5 years.<\/p>\n

Karpowership - part of the Karadeniz Energy group - already supplies around 80% of the West African nation's electricity via two powerships anchored off the capital Freetown under a contract signed in 2018.<\/p>\n

Vessels are fuelled by biofuels such as heavy fuel oil or liquefied natural gas (LNG).<\/p>\n

The new agreement will add 5 megawatts (MW) to current production. Karpowership will generate an average of 63 MW during the dry season and 23 MW during the rainy season for Sierra Leone's Electricity Distribution and Supply Authority.<\/p>\n

Karpowership did not publish the financial details of the agreement.<\/p>\n

With an electrification rate of just 5%, Sierra Leone's current generating capacity is well below the needs of its 7 million citizens. Prolonged power outages are common even in the capital and urban areas. Karpowership currently supplies around 4,100 MW of electricity from its fleet of vessels, mainly in eight African countries, but also in Cuba, the Middle East and Asia.<\/p>\n
