…to Accelerate Power Grid Modernization
As energy demand continues to grow rapidly across West Africa, ACTIA Energy is stepping up its commitment to the region by multiplying strategic engagements with local and institutional stakeholders. Recently, the company conducted prospecting missions in Dakar (Senegal) and Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire) to present its technological solutions and deepen collaboration with grid operators and local authorities.
Dakar: addressing Senegal’s energy challenges
Dakar, the dynamic capital of Senegal, was selected as a key entry point to assess the country’s specific needs in terms of energy transition and power grid digitalization. During this mission, ACTIA Energy highlighted the importance of strengthening service continuity, integrating advanced monitoring technologies, and modernizing infrastructure to better anticipate incidents and optimize power flow management.
Discussions with institutional and economic decision-makers made it possible to identify concrete opportunities to adapt ACTIA Energy’s solutions to the realities of the Senegalese market, particularly in intelligent grid supervision and the securing of electrical infrastructure.
Abidjan: Positioning Côte d’Ivoire as a regional energy hub
Shortly after its mission in Dakar, ACTIA Energy traveled to Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire’s main economic center, to reinforce its presence in a country that plays a strategic role in West Africa. The objective was to meet with institutions and key players in the power sector to exchange views on modernization challenges, grid reliability, and the digitalization of energy services.
In response to steadily rising electricity demand, the company presented tailored solutions designed to improve grid supervision, enhance resilience, and reduce service interruptions. These solutions include digitalization technologies, digital protection systems, and advanced connectivity solutions to optimize day-to-day operations.
