In
Yaounde, the Japanese Delegation paid a working visit which paved the way for
them to place their fingers on certain realities and thus strengthen the
partnership.
Japan
Power Plus Delegation was led by the CEO Hiro Nishina, accompanied by Mr
Takeya, Vice Group President and Co-Founder,Mr.Tchankou Ahmed, Director of the
Africa project, and Serge Henri Kelbe, a partner. They were received in turn by the
Japanese Ambassador to Cameroon by the Technical Adviser at the Presidency of
the Republic, the Secretary General at the Prime Minister's Office,the
Coordinator of CARPA Marcel Mbella, the Director General of the Agency for
Re-regulations in the Electrical Sector
(ARSEL)the Directors of ENEO on the instructions of the Director General,and by
the Minister of Communication Issa Tchiroma Bakary.
It
was however not possible for the Ministry of Water and Energy the titular
ministry to take part in this lofty initiative due to the fact that submissions
that were made at the level of the ministry with regards to this initiative did
not receive any feedback.As a result of this, the programmed meeting with the
Divisional Delegate of Water and Energy did not take place. It is a shame to
miss such an opportunity that offers solutions to correct and overcome the
power cuts that is almost putting Cameroon on its knees and disheartening to
learn of the contrary expectations the Minister who believes that solutions can
only be found in 2020.
Japanese
company “Japan Power Plus” poised to provide immediate solutions to correct and
overcome electricity load shedding.
Prominent worldwide since 2014, and since then, “Japan
Power Plus” has been working in partnership with a
Cameroonian Enterprise MATRIX POWER to install this
scientific development in Cameroon and Central Africa.
Everything started from the premise that the generation,
transmission and distribution of electrical energy has
encountered great difficulties that results in the loss of
electrical current in the range of about 30%.
This phenomenon is caused by obsolete equipment; which
has the effect of reducing the amount of energy available
during the distribution. Cameroonians have had bad times
and have learned to live with frequent power cuts and
untimely cuts of electricity. The production sector often
takes a big hit, especially Small and Medium Sized
Enterprises, which typically have a relatively small
financial base and who cannot afford to adopt a fuel
generator to compensate for all eventualities. The
populations of those slums and suburban localities may
suffer interruptions of up to several hours at a time on
several days in the dark.
Considering that energy constitute an important segment
of the cost of production and a very decisive factor in
determining the competitiveness of our products, which
face the products of developed nations rendered strong by
the Economic Partnership Agreements that allows for the
uplifting of tariff barriers. The lack of control of this
key sector penalizes the entire economic
system of the country.
This is the motivation that pushed Serge Henri Kelbe to
embark on the search for energy efficiency and security
solutions to which he became addicted since his return to
Cameroon with the installation of the Matrix Power
structure level of energy production in Cameroon from
multiple sources:hydro, heavy fuel generator, gas, solar
and thermal, can be around 1.400 megawatts per day.
Unfortunately,
we lose about 500 megawatts during the transportation thereof. This has pushed
the State of Cameroon, to create an Electric Transportation company referred to
as SOTREL that specifically takes care of all problems related to transport and
security of the energy produced. Meantime, Matrix Power has started to develop
a win-win partnership with Japan through the exchange of data and information,
informal contacts, case studies, simulations, development pilot projects, the
referral of the actors in the electricity sector and government authorities and
other operators in civil society. All this long process culminated in the visit
of the delegation of the Japanese company Power Plus, headed by the Chief Executive
Officer CEO Mr. Hiro Nishina, accompanied by the Vice President and Co-Founder Mr.
Takeya,inventor of the new dual carbon battery named Ryden Dual Carbon and Mr.
Ahmed Tchankou, African Director of the project who is of Cameroonian
nationality.
