Ethiopia has generated 7,668GWh (gigawatt-hours) of electricity during the first months of the Ethiopian fiscal year that started on July 8, 2021, Ethiopia Electric Power (EEP) related, showing a two percent decline compared to the same period of the previous year.
The decline in two percent, EEP noted during its assessment of its six-month performance, has to do with the conflict in northern Ethiopia, which made it difficult to get data from Tekeze Hydropower Station and Ashegoda Windfarm, which are located in the conflict area.
Regardless, EEP pointed out, it has achieved 84.4 percent of its power generation target during the period.
Out of the total 7,668GWh power generated, hydropower contributed the lion's share of 7,372 GWh, followed by 271 GWh from wind, and 25 GWh from geothermal sources, EEP indicated.
