CLSG project Acceleration Plan takes shape

Erick ACHI is TRANSCO CLSG Engineering Coordinator. He has been conducting supervision of the Acceleration Plan (AP) in the transmission line section from Man to Yekepa, under the CLSG interconnection project.

The Acceleration Plan (AP) calls for the fast tracking of the CLSG project implementation to ensure the December 2019 partial commissioning of the transmission line is achieved. Therefore, with the strong support of the donors and TRANSCO CLSG stakeholders, the Plan has been making inroads. The AP is being directed by the General Manager of TRANSCO CLSG, Mohammed M. Sherif.
