K&M was engaged by the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) on a Definitional Mission (DM) to aid in decision-making processes related to funding activities that enhance the pipeline development for the Alliance for Green Infrastructure (AGIA) in sub-Saharan Africa. The mission is centered on identifying and evaluating potential green infrastructure projects in diverse sectors […]
Biomass power generation is an attractive option for the Mauritian island grid because it offers dispatchable generation, uses agricultural waste as fuel, and has lower emissions than fossil fuel technologies. The climate rationale to transition the Omnicane Independent Power Producer (IPP) to 100% biomass is even stronger because it will displace CO2-intensive coal generation with […]
In accordance with the provisions of Article 15.1 of the BirAllah Exploration and Production Contract between bp and the Ministry of Petroleum, Mines and Energy of Mauritania (MPME), a collaborative examination must be carried out by the MPME and bp. The purpose of this examination is to evaluate the local natural gas (gas) outlets and […]
Funded by a USTDA grant, GreenCo enlisted the services of K&M to conduct a comprehensive feasibility study for the proposed development and implementation of a battery energy storage system pilot (BESS Pilot) with a capacity ranging from 10 to 25 MW and energy storage capacity of 40 to 100 MWh. Additionally, the study aimed to […]
K&M was contracted by Guinéenne d’Energie (GDE) to perform a pre-feasibility study for a new gas-fired power plant project in Conakry. The objective of this assignment is to identify the size and timing of gas-fired capacity additions that are economically justified in the Guinean grid, estimate the economically justified electricity generation using natural gas and resulting […]
The Government of Kenya intended to create a domestic natural gas market for power generation and industrial use with the aim of diversifying the country’s energy mix, improving energy security, reducing the cost of electricity, and lowering greenhouse gas emissions. The primary objective of the project was to conduct a feasibility study for the development […]
Vivo Energy is considering developing an LNG import terminal in Kamsar or Conakry to supply LNG by road to mines or other energy-intensive industries in Guinea (the “Project”). Using LNG rather than diesel or Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) could reduce energy costs to these mines and industries. As an initial step, Vivo, working alongside the […]
Oserian Two Lakes Power’s (OLTP) geothermal power plant is an important part of Kenya’s renewable energy and climate change prevention strategy. OLTP engaged POWER Engineers for support in ensuring a total load of 8 MW can be provided to industrial clients at Oserian via a high-voltage interconnection to Kenya Power and Light Company’s (KPLC) 33 […]
K&M was hired by one of the industry’s leading integrated waste technologies solutions provider in the region. The client’s 10 MW Waste to Energy pilot project innovation is a first of its kind in Kenya. The project is based on three specific forms of biomass: municipal solid waste, agricultural crop residues and livestock waste or […]
Africa GreenCo has retained K&M Advisors to advise on the development of the company’s procurement procedures and policies. In Zambia, Africa GreenCo will act as an intermediary offtaker and service provider, purchasing power from renewable IPPs and selling that electricity to utilities and private sector offtakers (i.e. commercial and industrial users) as well as other […]
