The WAPP Northcore Project is a sub-regional electricity interconnection project set up with the collaboration of the governments of Nigeria, Niger, Benin, Togo and Burkina Faso. The project is piloted by the West African Power Pool (WAPP), as part of its objectives of developing a regional sustainable electricity supply system aimed at promoting economic growth in the ECOWAS sub-region.
The 330 kV Northcore project consists of the construction of a 330 kV transmission line over a length of approximately 875 km between Birnin-Kebbi in Nigeria and Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso, passing through the Niamey region in Niger. The project also connects Benin, in the Malanville region, via Niger. The project is co-financed by the World Bank, the African Development Bank, the French Development Agency, the European Union and the contribution of the Government of Nigeria.
A Project Management Unit (PMU) was created in Abuja, Nigeria within the institutional framework of the project to, among other things, support Member States in the design and physical implementation of the North Core project. The PMU is made up of the central unit based in Abuja and will also have branches in each of the countries covered by the Northcore. The Project PMU is supported by a Consulting Engineer recruited mainly to supervise the construction works entrusted to the Contractors.
Blueprint Consult is recruiting on behalf of the Northcore Project to fill the vacancies below within the country branches of the Project Management Unit. Blueprint Consult invites qualified applicants to submit their applications for consideration.
