| description |
The Nile countries are endowed with
substantial energy resources. Yet, these have not been fully
tapped and several Nile countries have low levels of access
to electricity. This note showcases the achievements made at
the regional level to address this issue through cooperative
projects of regional significance. These include projects
that extend and link transmission lines to achieve
interconnections, and ones that promote responsible
development and generation of hydropower. The Nile basin
initiative (NBI) has played a catalytic role in facilitating
these projects, reducing power poverty, and increasing
national energy security. |
