Hydropower. The country is endow with a number
of potential hydropower sites which are all situated on
the White Nile River. The following five mega
hydropower sites with a cumulative capacity of
2,590 MW have been identified: Bedden (720 MW),
Fula (1,080 MW), Lekki (420 MW), Shukoli (250 MW)
and Juba barrage (120 MW). Map 8.1 indicates the
location of these sites. Regarding mega hydropower
development, all the potential sites have been studied
at pre-feasibility study level. Recently, the government
funded the services of a consulting fi rm to prepare a
feasibility study for the mega Fula hydropower plant. In
the short-term program, a feasibility level comparative
study of the fi ve sites will be undertaken to determine
the sequence of development of the plants. Such study
will allow the development of the hydropower sites in an
optimal manner and facilitate the mobilization of fi nancial
resources for their development. The initial phase project
is expected to be developed in the medium term. Six small
hydropower plants (sizes ranging between 2MW and 40
MW) with a cumulative capacity of 100 MW have also
been identified for development. None of the hydropower
sites has been developed as yet.
