Sao Tome and Principe

Sao Tome and Principe is a small island nation located in the Gulf of Guinea, off the western equatorial coast of Central Africa. The country primarily uses power plugs of Type C and Type F, which are common in Europe. The standard voltage is 230V, and the frequency is 50Hz, aligning with many other countries globally. Power generation relies heavily on diesel and hydroelectric sources, with ongoing efforts to incorporate more renewable energy. While the power grid is functional, it faces challenges with reliability due to infrastructure limitations and occasional fuel supply issues. Despite these challenges, the government is actively working to improve the resilience and efficiency of the power infrastructure to support economic growth and enhance the quality of life for its citizens.
