The total cost for the power station is US$895 million (approx. €836 million). The NEHO consortium was selected to carry out the feasibility studies, provide financing, construct the power station, operate the station when completed and maintain it in future. The government of Madagascar will contribute €30 million towards the project and will be a shareholder in the power station when completed. Construction began in December 2019 and commissioning of the comp
The existing power station is fed from Loch Sloy, just four kilometres away but, crucially, over 277 metres higher than the power station. We recently announced plans to convert Sloy Power

The Farahantsana hydroelectric power station in Madagascar has gone into operation. The government through President Andy Rajoelina inaugurated the28 MW facility.
The development of the project started 10 years ago, with construction starting in 2018 with the collaboration of companies from Madagascar, Italy, and the Philippines.
Recently, pumped-storage hydro has caught the attention and interest of the general public, mostly owing to two major pieces of news from the Philippine energy sector.
The Malagasy authorities are inaugurating the Farahantsana hydroelectric power station. The facility, located in the Itasy region, is the result of a project developed by Tozzi Green.

Madagascar''s energy landscape is finally getting a serious upgrade. EDF''s backing of the 120 MW Sahofika hydropower dam could transform a country where only 36% have electricity access.
The plant feeds its production into Madagascar's national electricity grid. A new hydroelectric power plant is coming into operation in Madagascar. The facility, located in the commune of Mahitsy in the Analamanga region, was inaugurated on Thursday 1 December 2022 by the President of the Malagasy Republic, Andry Rajoelina.

The plant feeds its production into Madagascar's national electricity grid. A new hydroelectric power plant is coming into operation in Madagascar.
The power station is the largest electricity generation project in Madagascar. The dam will be 60 metres (197 ft) high, creating a reservoir with a surface area of 6.7 square kilometres (3 sq mi). From the reservoir, water will flow through a pipeline that measures 716 metres (2,349 ft) long to arrive at the power house.
Madagascar has a technically feasible hydropower potential of about 180,000 GWh. Less than 1% has been developed so far, with 162 MW of installed hydro capacity producing 61% of the nations’ electricity.
EDF has signed an agreement to develop, build, and operate a 120MW hydroelectric dam in Madagascar. The signing took place during the state visit of French President Emmanuel Macron.
This equipment provides water for the operation of a power plant equipped with four Francis turbines with a combined capacity of 28 MW. “This new infrastructure marks a new stage in Madagascar’s journey towards emergence through energy transition and the country’s production capacity,” said President Andry Rajoelina at the inauguration ceremony.
