120 billion CFA francs have been mobilised by the French Development Agency (AFD) for the energy sector in order to improve the transport, distribution and information system of the company Energie électrique du Congo (E2C).

"We have discussed with the minister all the options before us to speed up the implementation of this important project which will enable the population to have better quality electricity", said the new AFD Director General in Congo, Maurizio Cascioli, who came on Monday to present his greetings and the roadmap of his mandate to the Congolese Minister of Energy and Hydraulics.We have discussed with the Minister all the options available to us to speed up the implementation of this important project which will enable the population to have better quality electricity", said the new AFD Director General in Congo, Maurizio Cascioli who came on Monday to present his civility and the road map of his mandate to the Congolese Minister of Energy and Hydraulics, Honoré Sayi.

Honoré Sayi and Maurizio Cascioli discussed projects financed and announced by AFD to improve electricity distribution conditions and drinking water supply in Brazzaville's outlying districts.

AFD has mobilized 120 billion CFA francs for the energy sector to improve the transport, distribution and information system of the Energie Electrique du Congo (E2C) company.

This project, which aims to bring quality water to the populations of Congo's largest city with 1,838,348 inhabitants in 2017, is "progressing very well", according to AFD's Director General in Congo, Maurizio Cascioli.

For a long time now, Brazzavillians have had to cope with untimely power and water cuts.

Those whose activities depend on electricity suffer the most because the Congolese capital operates on the basis of continuous and uninterrupted load shedding.

And Minister Honoré Sayi, aware of the fact that the protective state is also electricity and drinking water for all, is at work and very determined, despite the fact that the state is not the only one.And the minister Honoré Sayi, aware that the protective state is also electricity and drinking water for all, is at work and very determined, despite the financial crisis that is trying the country, to improve the situation for the well-being of the Congolese.
