Records by technology

Counts records, not generation share · coverage & dates

Reported capacity is the rated size of the listed installations, not electricity being produced now. Source dates and coverage differ, so newer facilities may be absent and historical records may remain.

How electricity works in Togo

Single buyerOne state buyer, private generators

Imports plus the Kekeli gas plant and solar supply power.

  • West African Power PoolRegional grid

    Member of the West African Power Pool, the ECOWAS body building interconnectors and a regional electricity market across West Africa.

What does “Single buyer” mean?

Independent power producers build plants and sell their output under long-term contracts to one designated state buyer, usually the national utility, which runs the grid and sells to consumers.
