Waterloo and its neighboring regions are poised to experience a significant boost in their electricity supply, promising a full day of uninterrupted sustainable power.
This development comes as the highly anticipated CLSG WAPP Transmission Line prepares to connect to the Bumbuna Line, allowing the transmission of electricity generated in Ivory Coast to reach Freetown, Sierra Leone by the end of this year or early next year.
The implementation of the CLSG WAPP Transmission Line marks a major milestone in the region’s efforts to enhance its power infrastructure.
Once the connection is established, the transmission line will facilitate the transfer of electricity from Ivory Coast’s abundant power sources to Sierra Leone, enabling a more stable and reliable energy supply for Waterloo and the surrounding areas.
This project has been met with great enthusiasm by residents and businesses alike, who have long grappled with frequent power outages and inadequate electricity provision. The extended hours of sustainable electricity are expected to have a transformative impact on the community, boosting economic activities, improving the quality of life, and enhancing the overall development of the area.
Try to bring a electricity in 55 area Waterloo even in whole waterloo as soon as possible because there need more development and electricity to flow up like freetown .that is Apeal to government
Thanks
This is a great news , I hope this facility is extended in Devil hole community who also have no electricity
Sierra Loaded,thank you very much for bringing us news from our beloved country. I value your newspaper because you are one of the few, really the only one, that brings us frequent news multiple times daily, so again thank you. However, there is an area where you are lacking and that area needs improvement.You seem to have a tendency to bring us quick news soundbites, instead of giving us detailed information and this article is one such example.Not too many people know what the CLSG is and you should have provided more detailed information. It is an ECOWAS project meant to supply electricity to Ivory Coast, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea that is funded by the African Development Bank, European Investment Bank, the World Bank and the Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau. It allows electricity to be traded amongst the countries, so if Sierra Leone where to be producing excess electricity, it can sell it to the other countries. However, Ivory Coast is the only one producing excess electricity right now,so this is where the other countries will be getting electricity supply. It is a project that has been a long time in development, they have been installing wires,etc, throughout the countries involved and Waterloo is not the only beneficiary.There is a main wire connecting the involved countries and connected to major electricity supplies, Bumbuna for instance is connected and from those wires, countries can connected their other towns and cities.
This is not criticism, just an appeal for you to give us more details, so we are not left with questions when we read your articles.
Great News!!! Hope it will happen soon. E D S A will collect huge revenue as devil hole and deep eye water communities have over five hundred homes.
