ENE to Provide Electricity to Entire Country by 2009
ANIP NEWS, 09.09.2005

The National Electrical Company (ENE) announced its plans this week to install new infrastructure to provide electrical service to regions of the country that have been without electricity. The “Strategic Development Plan for 2005/2009” includes the rehabilitation of electrical infrastructure in production centers, as well as the electrification of more rural areas. ENE Chairman Eduardo Nelumba said that the plan calls for a partnership between national and foreign investors in electrification projects. The plan focuses on projects that will increase the supply of electricity to urban centers and agricultural zones and aims to supply electricity at competitive prices and in an environmentally responsible manner.

In related news, Minister of Energy and Water Botelho de Vasconcelos recently announced that electricity rates would need to be adjusted to reflect actual production and supply costs. He said the government would gradually reduce electricity subsidies in order to attract private investors into the sector.
