[The construction of the largest hydroelectric power station in Rwanda with Chinese aid]Recently, the second hydroelectric power station project on the Nabaronga River in Rwanda, which was designed and constructed with preferential loans provided by China, has successfully started the key construction node of dam filling in 2025.
This project is the largest preferential loan project in the economic and trade cooperation between China and Rwanda, with an installed capacity of 43.5 megawatts and a reservoir capacity of 803.8 million cubic meters. It is listed as a key project of the Forum on China Africa Cooperation. The project officially started construction in May 2022 and successfully completed river closure in July 2023, entering the main construction phase.
Faced with a complex construction environment, the Chinese project team actively coordinated, conducted scientific experiments, and collaborated with multiple parties to overcome technical difficulties, effectively ensuring the smooth progress of the dam project. After the completion of the power station, it will greatly alleviate the power shortage problem in Rwanda and become another exemplary project of China Africa friendly cooperation. Editor/Yang Beihua
