With current ongoing projects, the country is constructing 4,500 MW of installed generation capacity. However, the country is experiencing energy shortages and load shedding as it strive to offer supply for over 110 million people and predicted to grow 30% per year. This boosted the GDP growth over past decades and increased electricity demand for public. Overview The Ethiopian Electric Power building in Addis AbabaĮthiopia has abundant renewable energy resources that potentially generates 60,000 megawatts (MW) of electric power from hydroelectric, wind, solar and geothermal sources. Frequent power outage may lead to serious threat to people such as fear and discomfort to the environment as well as the use of alternative energy sources like charcoal, firewoods and candle. The other issues is power outage that can adversely affects households from daily interruption by the Ethiopian Electric Utility. To solve this, the government set up big projects to construct hydroelectric dams such as the Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) and Koysha Dam that provide fertile electricity throughout the country. There are numerous restraints over electrification with most people in rural areas utilize traditional biomass energy sources and lack of modernized transmission and distribution. On total, Ethiopia produces 11 billion kWh from all facilities and exports other resources like natural gas or crude oil. The electrification process causes GDP growth and high public demand for 110 million of its population.
