ADDIS ABABA, March 25 (Xinhua) -- The Ethiopian government has announced that construction of the Koysha Hydropower Dam has reached 65 percent, with coordinated efforts underway to ensure the project's timely completion.
The dam, being built in southwestern Ethiopia at a cost of 2.5 billion euros (about 2.7 billion U.S. dollars), is expected to significantly boost the country's renewable energy output and contribute to its socio-economic development goals, state-affiliated Fana Broadcasting Corporate quoted senior Ethiopian government officials as saying after they inspected the project on Monday.
