A smart electricity grid solution, developed and built by electricity multinational ABB, provides connectivity for all critical elements of the grid, helps operators to balance supply and demand and, crucially, enables Côte d’Ivoire to access the West African Power Pool (Wapp), says ABB Power Grids division Grid Automation business line MD Massimo Danieli. The project, which upgraded the power distribution network, was very important to enable the country to participate in the Wapp and control the export and import of electricity, he says.
