The 11 Largest Dams in Africa.
Man has been building dams since the beginning of time to keep water in rivers for cultivation and to meet residential water demands. Recently, the increased need for energy has fueled the need for dams to support industrial growth and lighting households. With an ever-increasing population and a desire to industrialize, Africa's natural resources have been depleted, and the need for water is no exception. According to a recent count, there are 900 and 80 big dams in Sub-Saharan Africa, with roughly 500 and 89 of them in South Africa.
The continent of Africa in the last decade has seen a resurgence and the construction of massive dams in order to supply more regulated water and generate hydroelectricity. Most of these dams have been located along the Nile and more specifically in Ethiopia because of the country's mountainous region and abundance of rivers that offer ideal locations for dam construction.
In this video, we'll present the top 11 biggest dams that are located in Africa based on power generation capacity.
