In 2002, China’s Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) provided a grant to the Government of Guinea-Bissau for the Power Generation Equipment Project. The monetary value of this grant commitment is unknown. This project involved the provision and installation of power generation equipment to a power plant in the city of Bissau (Central Eletrica de Guine-Bissau). This project commenced in November 2002.
