On May 14, local time, Zambia’s largest photovoltaic power plant project – Kebwezi Samba 100 MW photovoltaic power plant
project achieved financing closure, and the signing ceremony was held in Lusaka, the capital of Zambia. The project is developed
by Zambia KNBEPC and CEC is responsible for the project implementation. During the financing process of the project, CECC
gave full play to its technical advantages, fully communicated with all relevant parties of the project, and contributed to the
smooth closing of the financing.
At the signing ceremony, Boyd Cancela, CEO of KNBEPC, emphasized the great role of the project in easing Zambia’s power supply,
and fully affirmed CECC’s technical capability and engineering implementation capacity. He said the achievement of financing closure
is a proud milestone that highlights the ability of the Zambian public sector to mobilize commercial capital. The representative of
the power purchaser, Wezzy Gondwe, said that the project demonstrates the results created by a sound business model and quality
partners, and thanked the CEC team for their efforts.
The Kebwe Zisamba PV power plant project is located near the city of Kebwe in Zambia’s Central Province, with an installed capacity
of 100 MW, including PV area, booster station, transmission substation and transmission lines. The completion of the project will
effectively alleviate the tension of Zambia’s power supply, further increase the diversity of energy sources in Zambia and enhance
the level of power supply.
