The proposed project (“Azito Phase 4” or “project”), developed by Globeleq Africa Holdings Limited (“Globeleq”) and Industrial Promotion Services (West Africa) (“IPS ((WA)”) (together the “Sponsors)”), is an expansion of the existing Azito Energie S.A. (“Azito Energie” or the “company”) power plant in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire. The project will be built and operated by Azito Energie and Azito Operation and Maintenance S.A. (“Azito O&M”), respectively.The existing thermal power plant consists of a combined cycle gas-fired power station with a total capacity of ~427 MWe, developed in three phases, all financed by IFC. Two 144 MWe simple cycle gas turbines were commissioned in March 1999 (Phase 1) and February 2000 (Phase 2), respectively, and were subsequently converted into a combined cycle in 2015 with the addition of two heat recovery steam generators (HRSG) and a 139 MWe steam turbine (Phase 3).

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF IFC
The Compliance Advisor Ombudsman (CAO) is the independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an IFC or MIGA- financed project. If you submit a complaint to the CAO, they may assist you in resolving a dispute with the company and/or investigate to assess whether the IFC is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. If you want to submit a complaint electronically, you can email the CAO at CAO@worldbankgroup.org. You can learn more about the CAO and how to file a complaint at http://www.cao-ombudsman.org/
