2.4 Guinea Railway Assessment 2.4 Guinea Railway Assessment For information on Guinea Conakry Railway company contact details, please see the following link: 4.10 Guinea Railway Company Contact List Even though it appears on the maps, in reality the railway between Conakry and Kankan does not exist anymore (the rails themselves were either sold or taken away). Currently there are four different railways operating in Guinea: Bauxite railway company – Conakry railway (CBG) Conakry - Kindia: A standard gauge railway line with a length of 105 km. The route is operated by the state owned mining company Societé des Bauxites de Kindia (SBK). The transport includes the delivery of bauxite (annually 1,2 million mt) from Kindia to Conakry harbour. Boké railway: The Northern Line of 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) gauge (standard gauge) carries about 12 million mt per annum. The route is: Port Kamsar – port Boké - Sangarédi - bauxite mine. The Company de Bauxite du Guinea (CBG), assisted by the Aluminum Corporation of America (Alcoa), operates the Boké Railway, which has been quietly getting on with heavy haul for the last 40 years with six-daily 13,000-ton bauxite trains behind pairs of EMD SD40-2 locomotives. Conakry Express: The Chinese International Funding (CIF) funded initiative delivered a passenger rail transport system in June 2010 which provides a 30 km of service in Conakry area. This public railway service between Conakry and Simbaya (36 km) runs once a day in each direction. One of the major projects in the near future will be to rehabilitate the Conakry - Kankan rail network. A Chinese company has started the renovation to join Kindia to Kankan and up to Bamako. The main network function is to transfer mine products from the site of production to the port Kamsar or Conakry. Guinea has 1,086 km of railways. The transport company AMA Africa is in partnership with the company RUSAL which is realizing a container terminal station at Debele near Kindia (Road N1 from Conakry, direction Mamou). It is possible to transport the containers by railway from Conakry port to Debelé / Kindia; this train connection is today used by RUSAL for Bauxite transportation from Kimbo. The Surface of the Debele site is 36,000 m² which can accommodate 300 TEU in the first phase. This dry port is dedicated to the Mali corridor; after the containers arrival by train at Debelé dry port, the containers should be positioned on trucks to reach Bamako via Kankan as there is no railway to Kankan. Proposed Trans-Guinean Railways: The heavy duty Trans-Guinean Railways is about 750 km long and would be 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) (standard gauge). It goes from iron ore mines in the south east and bauxite mines in the north to a new port at Matakong. The route would be: Matakong - Deepwater port - Forécariah - Madina Woula (way station) - Bambafouga(junction) – Marela (way station) - Faranah - Tiro – Kissidougou (way station) - Macenta - Koule - Nzerekore - Lola – Simandou (iron ore deposit) - Diéké – Nimba (iron ore) – Pontiola (bauxite) – Tougué (branch terminus - bauxite). The SGTE Société Générale de Technique et d'Études is the National company for rehabilitation and modernisation of the Railways of Guinea. The Conakry Express, operating between Petit Bateau and K36, has the following schedule: Page 1 Km Departure / Monday-Friday Monday-Friday Monday-Friday Arrival 0 PORTOVOYA (Petit Bâteau) d . 08.47 17.25 .

Southern Line This line is 1,000 mm (3 ft 3 38 in) gauge, but conversion to 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) gauge has been proposed. The route is: Conakry (capital and port) - Kindia (provincial capital) - Kolèntèn - Konkouré (several km north of railway) - Mamou (provincial capital) - Kégnégo - Dabola (junction and break of gauge) - Bissikrima - Cisséla - Kouroussa (bridge over Niger River) - Kankan (terminus and provincial capital) - Dabola (junction and break of gauge) - Tougué (bauxite). South west line This line is 1,435 mm (4 ft 8 12 in) and parallels the Southern line. The route is: Conakry (capital and port) - Kindia - bauxite mine. Page 2.

Doussou Lancine TRAORE, Yacouba CAMARA, Ansoumane SAKOUVOGUI, Mamby KEITA Polytechnic Institute, Gamal Abdel Nasser University of Conakry - Guinea, Energy Department, Higher Institute of Technology of Mamou - Guinea, Department of Physics, Faculty of Sciences, Gamal Abdel Nasser University of Conakry - Guinea, Traoredl54 @ gmail.com, +224 628 991426 [email protected], +224 622288295 [email protected], +224 628016168 [email protected], +224 622681932 Abstract: The hydro-energetic potential of the Kalako site on the Tinkisso River in Dabola prefecture, evaluated by the spot measurement method during the month of March (dry season) is 5085.50 kW, or about 5.1 MW. This value is in the range of mini hydroelectric plants. The values of the evaluation parameters of this hydroenergetic potential at this time are: the depth of the watercourse (0.58 m), the flow velocity (1.46 m/s), the flow rate (14.4 m3/s), the drop height (60 m) and the efficiency of the electromechanical equipment (60%). Such a regular assessment of the hydroelectric potential of all waterfalls available in the country would provide a reliable database on the existing hydroelectric potential, hence the objective of this research. Key words: Assessment, potential, hydropower, useful power. 1.Introduction these hydroelectric potentials is often based on analyzes of Hydroelectric power is a renewable energy obtained by meteorological and hydrological data over a long period (25 converting the hydraulic energy of the various natural water to 50 years). It turns out that for most of these sites in flows into electricity.
