Spread the news

Ethiopia is working intensively to complete the GRD project by 2023 and to regard the dam as an unfounded and uncientific hazard to water security,” said the Minister of Water, irrigation and electricity. The project will be completed by 2023. 

In addition, Minister Engineer Seleshi Bekele (Ph.D) reported that the GERD construction was 78.3% and it is projected to end up at 82% before the next rainy season. 

Engineer Seleshi told the local media that, following the swift steps taken by the reformist administration to guarantee professionalism, the dam’s overall construction progressed quickly. The most important issues with the decision-making and follow-up method were addressed by administrative changes. 

The ministry and Ethiopia’s Electric power (EEP) have worked together with the new administration and the Board to address the problems that led to building delays before the reform in 2018. ‘The resolution of the major problems and the continuous monitoring, evaluation and assessment of the mass power plant have allowed the country to return to the right truck construction process.’
