The MOUs were signed in the presence of The President of the Republic of Senegal, H.E. Macky Sall, The Minister of Investment, H.E. Eng. Khalid bin Abdulaziz Al Falih, and Mr Fahd bin Ali Al-Dosary, the Saudi Ambassador to Senegal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">ACWA Power will work with SENELEC to build a 160MW combined Cycle Gas Turbine (CCGT) plant in line with Senegal’s Gas for the power plan in Cap des Biches. The power project will reduce the cost of electricity, reduce greenhouse emissions by about 23% by 2030 and increase the country’s energy independence. ACWA Power will also oversee the development of the largest desalination plant in sub\u2013Saharan Africa.
