Customer ServiceWhen the extensions of the projects are completed, Release’s projects in totality will supply energy to about 200,000 households in Cameroon, according to ENEO estimates, generating an annual production of about 141.5 GWh of electricity.
Electricity in Cameroon is mainly consumed by the industrial and residential sectors in urban areas, where the electrification rate is almost 90 %, compared to 20 % in rural areas and a national average of 68 % [ 43 ].
Overall, a total of 21 sites have been deemed acceptable and the 11 most relevant sites based on the available head (especially those with a head of more than 200 m) are mapped in Fig. 12. The overall pumped-storage potential of Cameroon could therefore be estimated at 34 GWh and depicted as in Fig. 13. Fig. 12.
