With these projects, according to the governor of Lunda Norte, the State intends to significantly reduce energy production through generator groups and also the use of fossil fuels.
Ernesto Muangala also took the opportunity to talk about the works on the Luachimo hydroelectric dam. Cited by Angop, the official informed that the work is about 78 percent completed and that it should be concluded this year.
He also made it known that the Government is trying to overcome the financial problems that have slowed down the pace of the project.
The works – budgeted at more than 212 million dollars, through a credit line from China – will make it possible to increase the energy capacity of the enterprise from 8.4 to 34 megawatts.
