Sep 13, 2023 - Ethiopia says filling of Nile Renaissance mega-dam complete
Ethiopia announced on Sunday it has filled its Grand Renaissance Dam on the Nile, the source of a long-running water dispute with downstream Egypt and Sudan. The news brought a prompt condemnation from Egypt, who denounced it as illegal. The primary purpose of the dam is electricity production to relieve Ethiopia`s acute energy shortage and for electricity export to neighboring countries. With a planned installed capacity of 5.15 gigawatts, the dam will be the largest hydroelectric power plant in Africa when completed, as well as among the 20 largest in the world.
