Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) – Concession agrément

Mar 23, 2022

Our firm had the privilege of assisting MERIDIAM in the negotiations with CETUD – Conseil Exécutif des Transports urbains de Dakar , representing the Republique du Senegal, in the framework of the Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project.

These negotiations fortunately led to the signing of a concession agreement between the State of Senegal and DAKAR MOBILITE S.A., the project company and subsidiary of Meridiam, for the acquisition of vehicles and the operation and maintenance of the BRT.

This project, which represents a total investment of 135 million Euros, will contribute to significantly improve urban mobility in Dakar and air quality with the commissioning of an initial fleet of 121 100% electric buses. The system will transport 300,000 people per day, serving 14 communes and 23 stations.

The team was composed of Mame Adama GUEYE, Managing Partner, Alioune Mboup Partner,  Hamza FALL, Legal Counsel and Ndeye Penda Gueye, Legal Counsel.

Join us as we explore the intersection of law, energy, and environmental sustainability, gaining valuable perspectives from a seasoned legal mind at the forefront of Senegal’s progressive energy landscape.

How has Senegal’s energy transition policy, initiated in 2010, evolved over the years, and what pivotal role does it play in addressing current energy challenges as discussed at COP 28?

The energy transition policy initiated in 2010 made it possible to increase the contribution of renewable energies in the overall production of electrical energy to 31% of installed electrical capacities, a significant portion of which is solar energy. The scope of the development is considerable to the extent that in 2014, Senegal only had a 2MW mini solar power plant. This development, which contributes to the response to current energy challenges as discussed at COP 28, is perfectly in line with the commitment of 116 countries to triple the capacity of renewable energies in the world.
