Funding has been completed for Mozambique’s $652 million Central Termica de Temane power station, a gas-fired plant intended to take one of the world’s poorest nations through the green-energy transition.

The 450-megawatt project in Inhambane Province will start producing power in 2024, Globeleq Inc. said in a joint statement on the financial close with its partners, state-owned Electricidade de Moçambique and Sasol Ltd. The broader project, including gas development and regional grids, will draw more than $2 billion of investment, the companies said.
