All 7 dams are the largest power-generating bodies respectively, before the Jebel Ali Power Plant at 8,695 MW, the largest non-renewable energy-generating facility in the world. The currently planned Grand Inga Dam would be nearly twice the size of the Three Gorges Dam at 39,000 MW , surpassing all power-generating facilities once it passes the ...
When completed, as expected in 2023, the power station will be the first, grid-ready hydroelectric power station, developed and owned by an independent power producer (IPP) in West Africa. The energy generated here will be sold to the Ivorian electric utility company, Cienergues, under a 35-year power purchase agreement (PPA). [1]
They have recruited the African Union and the New Partnership for Africa's Development in their efforts to get the power station built. [1] South Africa has indicated willingness to buy 2.5 GW of the dam's output. Nigeria is interested in buying 3 GW and the Congolese mines in Katanga Province are interested in 1.3 GW. [8]
