dc.descriptionThe 150-kilometer high voltage transmission line linking towns in Papua New Guinea will bring electricity from renewable energy sources to households, schools, and medical clinics. The project is significantly improving access to energy for the communities along the transmission line, and is bringing electricity to over 8,000 residents for the first time. The transmission line will connect renewable energy from existing hydropower and biomass facilities and 46 school buildings, 4 church buildings, and 2 medical clinics will be electrified. Construction commenced in July 2016 and is scheduled for completion in July 2017. The project is supported through ADB-administered Town Electrification Investment Program, a $150 million multitranche financing facility program.
