An Indian company has reportedly been awarded the contract for the USD 60-70 mn power interconnection project with Sudan, Electricity Minister Mohamed Shaker said on Tuesday, according to the Sudan Tribune. Shaker reportedly said that the final contracts will be signed “soon” and that the first phase of the project will be complete within four months. The report conflicts with claims earlier this week that the Egyptian Electricity Transmission Company would re-issue the tender for the project, as the Indian company lacks the experience necessary for the project, despite putting forth the best offer.
