ACCRA (Bloomberg) --Ghana is set to open sub-Saharan Africa’s first liquefied natural gas-to-power project as it moves to position itself as a hub for the cleaner and cheaper fuel in the region.
LNG-to-power projects have been booming from Asia to Latin America in recent years as they allow nations to switch from dirtier fossil fuels to keep the lights on. And for sellers, integrated LNG-to-power provides a guaranteed outlet for the fuel.
Tema LNG Terminal Co. received the floating regasification unit from Jiangnan, China on Wednesday, paving the way for the supply of 1.7 million tons of natural gas per year for power generation sometime this quarter, Edmund Agyeman-Duah, project manager at the company, said.
The company, backed by Helios Investment Partners and Africa Infrastructure Investment Managers, began building the $350 million project about two years ago.
“Ghana can now start to service the rest of the region with fuel that is continuously growing in popularity because of the cost and the significant environmental benefits it provides,” Agyeman-Duah said.

Kazikazi: And who are those perishing in the Mediterranean sea every year? Who are they? Who are those folks living in terrible slums? Who are the folks living in mud houses in this century?
Even here in Ghana, little time you hear people saying, "this is expensive" "these estate houses are too expensive" bla bla bla yet when you make enquiries you will notice that over 80%customers of those expensive products are Ghanaians.
Africans are rich Yes, we have the poor but there are supper rich Africans too.
Exactly my bro go to London and other europen cities and see how Africans are booming their real estates
Kazikazi: Am not shocked to see a country with 1.5 billion souls( China) having 1 million poor men. But a tiny African nation having millions of poor people, that's too sad
Kazikazi: Don't try to sound funny. Do u think I don't know Africa? Do u think I never saw on CNN millions of folks perishing in Mediterranean escaping poverty?
Even Asia which is the fastest growing region ppl still run from poverty
Some Chinese died running away from poverty in the back of and ice truck
Kazikazi: Africans do drink wines in huge quantity. Africans are into beer and carbonated drinks. Even South Africa which tops Africa in wine production don't sell much in Africa.
Also there is issues of costs.most of our stuff are high quality and costly.
Hahahaha say Tanzanias can't afford high quality stuffs stop generalizing it
Shma2020: Caged house for Neanderthals is not developed either. the only section of development is found in stomach and mouth.. You guys were blessed with gigantic mouth I don't know for what reason but basically to swallow rodents and banku delicacies with one touch .
How can a country with no single skyscraper be relevant? I know skyscrapers are not measurement for development but why is your train stations and city at large ugly?
You are from irrelevant nation zombie. a country that uses Nairobi of 1980 as their vision 2030 is a failed state.
Shma2020: You can only hit headlines because your country is full of shot funny looking people .. I would put it as a country of troglodyte human or Neanderthals.
Aside dwarfism, you can only be relevant when you hold the pic of most dynamic city in africa as your vision 2030.. The pic then can make sense in that regard of it is nairobi of 1980.
Aside that.. You're nothing but rodents eaters and a*s lickers. You need a special cage in our continent..
Smile dwarffy.. Cheers
And tell me the relevance of ur country
Kenya is only known for marathon running and and starving people that is the only moment the name Kenya is mentioned
Abohboy: If you go anywhere in west or central Africa you would find that product, I doubt you found it in Nigeria but if you actually ventured out of your country and went to places like Benin, Ghana, Togo etc. You would find similar products with similar names African villages have herbalists who are scammers and that’s life it has nothing to do with poverty rates
