Parallel Build Track

Senegal Deep Dive

Senegal should be set up in parallel with Kenya as the next inventory and utility-focused country track, with a strong focus on Senelec and the practical setup needed for project delivery, grid understanding, and future SF6 transition planning.

Why Senegal matters now

Parallel setup while the Senelec-linked project is being established.

  • Start inventory structure early while project context is forming.
  • Use Senelec as the key utility anchor for substations, grid structure, and procurement logic.
  • Build comparability with Kenya from the start.
  • Make Senegal ready for rapid ingestion once source files and utility data are available.

Planned Senegal sections

Mirror Kenya where useful, but adapt to Senelec and project specifics.

  • country baseline and inventory status
  • Senelec utility profile
  • substations and MV/HV structure
  • SF6-relevant equipment tracking
  • grid expansion and investment links
  • procurement and policy context
  • BAU vs mitigation setup

Senelec inventory readiness

Parallel Kenya ↔ Senegal logic

How the two country tracks should work together.

  • Kenya = first deep reference case and methodology benchmark.
  • Senegal = parallel build track and next operational utility-focused setup.
  • Use the same schema, confidence logic, and scenario structure across both countries.
  • Compare data completeness, asset structure, leakage assumptions, and mitigation readiness side by side.
