Platinum Power plans to construct $845m hydropower plant in Cameroon

Hydroelectric power development in Guyana can take place with Brazil's involvement under the BOOT system ---

Build Own Operate Transfer.

Tell that to Bharat he was charging the nation $835 million PLUS INTEREST for 165 MW.

This 400 MW project is costing about the same.

It is anti-national and anti-patriotic when someone will use the national development to tek a bribe.

Guyana desperately needs cheap and reliable electricity but for that to happen theis fool got to mek another US$10 million for himself and his spouse - Babby.

Location, workers, proximity to the needed materials and equipment, etc., vary greatly among hydroelectric power plant.

Also, indeed the eventual costs are usually equated to cost per KWH.

Of note, the locations for hydroelectric power plants are in remote areas of Guyana which increases the costs for transportation, installation, etc., for the project.

Therefore, unit cost per KWH while for the identical power output can indeed vary.

The PPP were planning to rob Guyana blind with the Amaila Falls Hydro Project. Even in the most corrupt countries such as Cameroon they can get a 400MW hydro plant cheaper than the 165MW plant that the PPP were using to scam the Guyanese taxpayers.

Uncle Demerara Guy.  I am aware you are the resident engineer on GNI so I am not going to question your technical skills.

What I am very concerned about is that your argument cannot hold water.  I will tell you why?

The distance form the hydro site in Cameroun to the coast is some 541 km.  Amaila is only 288 miles away from the coast.  So your location argument is flawed Sir.

STOP IT.

Bharat and Babby were planning to LICK UP.  End of story.  Thanks the lord for Granger and Nagamootoo who stopped them in their tracks.

While distance is indeed a consideration, similar to projects in other countries, terrain, importation of equipment, etc., etc., etc..

Wondering what YUJI got to say about Hydro pwoer?

Ole bai, what's the difference between the cost per MW and the cost per MWh?  What do you need to calculate the latter? 

If you do not know, do your personal research to find out.

Hydro seed engineer I am asking you?  How would you develop your cost per kWh (not KWH as you have above)?

Your absolute choice to ask about the things you do not know.

However, the best solution is to find the answers yourself.

Ole bai, dat is me jaab bai.  Dat is why ah asking you wha yuh talking bout.

Push.
