The following page lists hydroelectric power stations that generate power using the run-of-the-river method. This list includes most power stations that are larger than 100 MW in maximum net capacity, which are currently operational or under construction.
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 ] On January 2025, according to the BBC, it was reported that Chinese state-owned firm the Three Gorges Corporation has backed out of the project.
Julius Nyerere Hydropower Station (JNHPP; JNHS; RHHP; Rufiji Hydroelectric Power Project; Stiegler's Gorge Dam) is a hydroelectric dam under construction and partially operational across the Rufiji River in eastern Tanzania. The power station is expected to have an installed capacity of 2,115 megawatts (2,836,000 hp) and to produce 5,920 GWh of ...
The electrical-mechanical installations of the power station are located approximately 100 metres (328 ft) underground, with 26.5 kilometres (16 mi) of underground access roads, making Karuma the 14th largest underground power station in the world. [8]
The new infrastructure includes a new above-ground power station, an adjacent substation, a new 220kV high voltage transmission line that measures 39 kilometres (24 mi) in length and a new 220kV/33kV substation at Kyaka, where the electricity generated at Kakono will enter the Tanzanian grid. [5]
