Power

Most of Sub-Saharan Africa is in the midst of a power crisis. The region’s power generation capacity is lower than its consumption. It is with certainty that the continent’s power needs will continue to increase over time and as such, the continent has to prepare itself for this eventuality. We have unrivalled expertise to help utilities and the industry at large effectively transmit electricity from the point of generation to the point of consumption.

Power Infrastructure
background

We have the in-house skills and capabilities to Design, Manage, Procure, Construct and Commission Substation Projects GIS or AIS) up to 765kV. We offer solutions for a variety of substation projects and applications suitable for African power utility and other private companies including Modular Substation Automation Systems, utility and industrial substation solutions.
