Regional water trust fund Energy (power–interconnectivity) Study proposed for: 1. South Sudan (Juba)–Uganda (Karuma) interconnection – 220 KV (450 km) 2. Eritrea–Sudan interconnection: 220kv (350km) Work in progress: 1. Ethiopia–Kenya Interconnection 400kv (1200km):design and procurement underway 2. Ethiopia-Sudan-Egypt Interconnection: Ethiopia – Sudan segment complete 3. Djibouti–Ethiopia Interconnection 220kv – 100MW: already commissioned Renewable Energy Development: (Suitable for PPP) 1. Geothermal development: facilitate investment in geothermal power production by addressing the existing barriers (knowledge and information, technical, institutional, financial) to the increased use of geothermal energy 2. Small Scale Wind & Solar Pumps 3. Regional Grid connected wind Power for the Horn of Africa 4. Solar Photovoltaics (PVs) and Solar Water Heaters for Rural Institutions and Commercial Establishments (e.g. clinics, hospitals religious establishments, lodges and hotels) Expected outcomes Regional integration/trade facilitation promoted Regional interconnections in place Peace, security and sustainable development achieved Thank you!
