95% completion of Kabalega International Airport. Commissioning expected in the 3rd quarter of 2025. Construction of the 240 MW substation and the underground high voltage line has commenced. Commissioning is expected in 4th quarter 2025. UNOC together with SBI are finalising a proposal for the KIP infrastructure development under Phase 1. This includes; 40 km of paved road inside KIP, Wastewater reticulation including construction of a wastewater treatment plan, medium to low voltage power substations, IT reticulation system which will include a data centre. UNOC has received a certificate of approval for regional strategic ESIA for KIP. Each project in KIP will have to get a project specific ESIA which will fit within the strategic ESIA. The implication is that the project specific ESIAs will be much simplified since the strategic ESIA already covers a lot of ground.
