Financial Chronicle |
| In life and in death, rivers are an integral part of the human story. Mankind has thrived and civilizations have prospered around them for centuries on end. Be it the Nile or the Ganges, their holy water is said to have blessed many a soul.
Besides us humans, there are many other inhabitants for whom the river is a source of shelter, food and conducive habitat. Like some egg-laying species such as fish, crocodiles, birds and amphibians. An egg being most vulnerable stage in their life cycle, these creatures prefer to lay them around or in the river. Many factors control the growth of these species, they may be natural which are uncontrollable and man-made which we can work on.
One such man-made disturbance--- dams and reservoirs--- control the water regime of the river and in turn govern its ecology. In a developing nation with a mammoth population, our policymakers have designed a mega river-linking project to secure drinking and irrigation water for our needs.

The dream of harnessing the mighty Congo River with the world's largest set of dams has moved closer, with the World Bank and other financial institutions expected to offer finance and South Africa agreeing to buy half of the power generated.
French, Belgian, Chinese, Brazilian and African engineers have, over 60 years, all hoped to dam the Congo. But decades of civil war, corruption, and the Democratic Republic of Congo's (DRC) reputation as a failed state have limited the hydropower developments at Inga Falls to two relatively small dams, built in 1972 and 1982. These, dubbed Inga 1 and 2, have a theoretical capacity of 1,400MW but produce only about half that.
A new $20bn development to generate a further 4,800MW was announced over the weekend in Paris with work planned to start in October 2015. According to the DRC government, working with European and other consultants, five further ... |
