Capital of Africa supported BUTEC Group as exclusive financial advisor in the successful financing of its 50 MW BOOT thermal power project in Burkina Faso, a key initiative aimed at urgently strengthening the national electricity supply through a PPA with SONABEL.
The project involves the development of two power plants in Kaya and Koudougou, with commissioning scheduled for Q1 2026, reflecting the fast-track nature of the development.
Representing a total investment of FCFA 26 billion (approximately €40 million), the financing was secured through contributions from BUTEC Group and a structured financing package arranged by Banque Centrale Populaire (BCP) Group, via Banque Atlantique Côte d’Ivoire, Banque Atlantique Burkina Faso, and Banque Atlantique Togo.
We are proud to have contributed to the structuring and financial closing of a project that will play a critical role in strengthening Burkina Faso’s electricity supply.
Capital of Africa remains committed to advising transformative infrastructure and energy projects across the continent.
