Grant Description
Chinese Government provides $120 million loan for 400km Dongola-Wadi Halfa Transmission Line and Dongola–Karma-Wadi Halfa Substations Project In 2008, the Chinese Government and the Government of Sudan signed a $120 million loan agreement for the 400km Dongola-Wadi Halfa Transmission Line and Dongola–Karma-Wadi Halfa Substations Project.
The proceeds of this loan were used to finance one or more construction (commercial) contracts signed on December 24, 2008 with China National Electric Equipment Corporation (CNEEC) and Harbin Electric International Corporation.
Construction took place in two phases: Lot A, which was implemented by Harbin Electric International Corporation, involved the construction of a 220 KV, 400 km transmission line between Dongola and Wadi Halfa.
Lot B, presumably implemented by CNEEC, includes the installation of two electricity substations in Karma and Wadi Halfa. Lot A was provisionally accepted on December 4, 2011. Both Lot A and Lot B were completed and accepted by May 8, 2013.
Staff Comments
- The Chinese project title is 栋古拉-瓦迪哈尔法输变电线路 or 东格拉—瓦迪哈里法输变电工程 or 東格拉輸變電等項目 or 苏丹东格拉-瓦迪哈勒法400公里220千伏双回输变电项目.
- This loan is not included in the database of Chinese loan commitments that SAIS-CARI released in July 2020.
- Page 144 of the Bank of Sudan Annual Report 2009 (see source ID 118541) has evidence of the Government of Sudan contracting a loan for this project.
- Harbin Electric Group Co. first signed a construction contract with Sudan's National Electrical Company in November 2005 (see source ID 119153). This was probably replaced by the new contract signed in 2008 with Harbin as well as CNEEC.
