On 7th April 2016, the second large Community Engagement Event took place in the Presbyterian Church of Old Ningo. More than 300 people were present at this meeting in order to get additional information on the progress of the 225 MW wind park project.
On the 13th of January 2016, the Wind Energy Project Konikablo, which is located directly east of the Wind Farm Ayitepa that is also being developed by us, has received the definite and final Construction Permit from the responsible district authority in Ningo-Prampram (District Assembly). This happened after a relatively short permitting process of only a couple of months.
After having received the provisional wholesale electricity supply license from the Energy Commission as well as the definite environmental permit for our wind energy project Konikablo, we have handed in the application for the construction permit to the local authorities (Ningo-Prampram District Assembly) in November, 2015. We reckon that this permit will be issued within the next couple of weeks.
As already communicated previously, we are in the process of planning the 225 MW Wind Farm Ayitepa on behalf of Mainstream Renewable Power Ltd. The wind farm will be complemented with two solar projects in the direct neighbourhood with 20 MW each and therefore will be the first hybrid project Africas with renewables energies.
The Wind Farm Konikablo, which is located in the Greater Accra Region and has been developed by us since some time now, has received the preliminary license for energy production (Provisional Generation and Wholesale Supply License) from the Energy Commission at the end of October, 2015.
