Eritrea Pumped Storage Renovation Project: Modernizing Energy Infrastructure for a Sustainable Future

You know, when we talk about renewable energy in Africa, most folks immediately think of solar farms in Morocco or wind projects in Kenya. But here's the thing – Eritrea's pumped storage hydropower system, originally built in the 1980s, has been quietly powering the nation for decades. Problem is, the system's operating at barely 60% efficiency today. With climate change intensifying droughts and population growth pushing energy demand up by 7% annually, this aging infrastructure simply can't keep up. [2025-03-21 13:54]
