The people and Government of Ethiopia are funding the project, which will not only serve Ethiopia, but Sudan and Egypt as well. Approximately 20, people will be resettled during the course of the project.
The reservoir and dam will offer major benefits to Ethiopia, Egypt and Sudan. Egypt has for a long time held the major ownership of the water from the Nile River and prevented Ethiopia from constructing a dam. A tripartite committee was formed in January to promote understanding and look into the benefits and impacts the project would have on the three countries. Aimed primarily at generating power, with an expected capacity of 6,MW, the main and saddle dams will also create reservoirs with an impounding capacity of 74 billion cubic metres.
The dam will be capable of handling a flood of 19, cubic metres per second, will reduce alluvium in Sudan by million cubic metres and also facilitate irrigation of around ,ha of new agricultural lands. It will also reduce approximately 40km of flooding in Sudan, upon its completion. Muscle strains and GERD-related chest pain tend to feel better when you move your body.
