Togo: Tinga Fund Achieves 54% Connection Rate
(Togo First) - As of mid-2024, two years after its launch, the Tinga Fund had successfully connected 21,430 households to Togo''s power grid. The achievement is detailed in the "Reform Implementation Report" recently released by the Ministry of Economy and Finance.
Reserves and balancing power
The needed volume of the reserve in the Nordic power system depends on the greatest individual fault, and it is dimensioned separately for under- and overfrequency events. An underfrequency event can be caused by e.g. tripping of a large production unit or of a transmission line importing power to the Nordics. Fingrid''s reserve power plants.
Frequently asked questions
The account holder should arrange to send the power plant''s net production data to Fingrid''s system in EDI messages. If the power plant''s production time series is submitted to Fingrid for main grid invoicing purposes and it can be used in this form for issuing guarantees of origin, no other time series is required.
