Ewekoro Power Limited (EPL) supply electrical power to West African Portland Cement Plc's cement facility, located at Ewekoro, in Ogun State near Lagos. EPL will install four new gas engines with a total capacity of 12.5 megawatts under a Build-Own-Operate concept. RRPV's investment will supply reliable power to the cement facility, thereby helping to meet the construction needs of Nigeria's fast-growing population. MIGA's involvement in the project will help create 42 local jobs, 34 of which are skilled technical positions. Fifty additional jobs will be created during the construction phase and EPL will provide ongoing training throughout the duration of the project. EPL will facilitate growth in local economic spending and an estimated $4.5 million on local construction costs. The project will also have a positive impact on the local environment, replacing 30-year old electrical generating sets with modern, clean and efficient gas engine technology. T
