YAOUNDE, Cameroon--Vinci SA's Cegelec will invest 9 billion CFA francs ($16.38 million) in the construction of power lines in Cameroon.

The company will connect 105 kilometers of the electricity lines from the Lom Pangar power dam in the east of Cameroon as part of a project to generate 30 megawatts of electricity, according to a statement released Friday by Electricite du Cameroun, the state-run company that manages the dam.

The lines will be connected between November and December this year, clearing the way for part of the dam's generation to become operational by 2022, the EDC said.
