Africa-Press – Angola. <\/strong><\/span>Angola has a gross need of 250,000 meters\/year, to serve around 250,000 new connections, as part of the electrification process that the Executive is implementing in the country, said Thursday, in Bengo province, the Minister of Energy and Water, Joa\u0303o Baptista Borges.<\/b><\/p>\n

The minister who was speaking to the press at the inauguration of a factory for the production of electric meters, said that such needs will occupy the three factories of this product that exist in the country (one in Bengo and two in Luanda), whose advantages lie in the fact that to be suppliers and service providers.<\/p>\n

The minister highlighted the importance of the start-up of the 3rd electrical meter factory in the country (the one in Bengo) in order to reduce imports of this type of material.<\/p>\n

He said he was satisfied with the fact that the private sector had invested in such a crucial area as electricity metering.<\/p>\n

We are on the way to reducing costs with the importation of this material, but it is important to create local jobs and build knowledge that is incorporated into these projects.<\/p>\n

He pointed out the need for private investment also in other areas of production of electrical equipment such as the construction of towers, electrical conductors and switchboards, to create a local industry that can support the investment that the Executive is making to electrify the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe need to do more electrification works with less imports\u201d, reinforced the minister.<\/p>\n

The CEO of Inotec, Li\u0301gia Fraga, said that with the new factory the company will start producing single-phase and three-phase electric meters, as well as energy and water meters, in Angola.<\/p>\n

The factory for the production of electric meters is a private initiative by the company Inotec, which has invested around US$3 million and created 28 jobs for young people in Bengo province.<\/p>\n
