Equatorial Guinea Mandates Plans for State Power Utility SEGESA
What happened
Equatorial Guinea's Power Ministry was given one week to submit plans for running the state utility SEGESA. The plans must detail how the country’s power plants will be formally placed under SEGESA’s responsibility. The review of SEGESA’s operations noted that a shortage of materials and spare parts is a cause of electrical faults, and the utility has outstanding payments to suppliers.

Why it matters
The mandate aims to clarify who is responsible for generation, maintenance, and distribution costs within the country. Officials were instructed to study agreements for a year’s stock of essential equipment, such as transformers and cables. This effort addresses SEGESA’s operational position and outstanding supplier payments.
