Ministry of Universal Access to Water and Energy
Overview
The Ministry of Universal Access to Water and Energy appears under this title in the list of ministries published on the government portal. It carries state policy on drinking water and electricity. The legal framework is law No. 24/2016 of 29 December 2016, which guarantees a right of access to these services and makes their generation, transmission and distribution a state monopoly that the state may entrust to legal entities under Gabonese law through a concession, lease, public-private partnership or other contract. This is the legal basis for independent power producers entering the sector. Decree No. 0110/PR/MERH of 27 April 2022 designates the public service concession holder. No official website specific to the ministry could be verified; the map position is the centre of Libreville.
