Tulu Moye Geothermal Power Station
The Tulu Moye Geothermal Power Station, is a geothermal power station, under construction in Ethiopia. When fully developed, the power station will be the first grid-ready independently developed geothermal power station in the country. The developers of this power plant, plan to expand it to 150 megawatts capacity, in the second phase, planned in the following five years. Location The power station is located near the ''Tulu Moye Volcano'', in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia, approximately , southeast of Addis Ababa, the capital and largest city in Ethiopia. The concession site comprises . Overview The power station will be developed in phases. The first phase involves drilling of 12 holes, two of which are ''injection holes'', while the remaining ten are ''production holes''. The next infrastructure is the construction of a steam collection and injection system. The addition of a "water-cooled condensing steam plant" comes after that. Other infrastructure includes a 230kV ele ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Energy In Ethiopia
Energy in Ethiopia is energy and electricity production, consumption, transport, exportation, and importation in Ethiopia. Overview The following table provides some of the most relevant energy sector numbers for Ethiopia, a developing country. The ''primary energy sector'' is by far the most important one in Ethiopia, with mainly wood used for cooking. That together with the population growth in Ethiopia results in issues like deforestation. Ethiopia aims at economic development and removal of poverty and to replace the use of wood by alternatives. This makes the ''secondary energy sector'' (with ''electricity'') most relevant for these efforts. Almost all recent developments are taking place in the secondary energy sector, with the construction of mainly hydropower plants and power transmission lines being most visible. * PE: Ethiopia did not export PE in the years shown. * PE: all PE imports were ''bituminous materials'' (natural asphalt used as engineering material for the ...

List Of Power Stations In Ethiopia
This page lists power stations in Ethiopia, both integrated with the national power grid but also isolated ones. Due to the quickly developing demand for electricity in Ethiopia, operational power plants are listed as well as those under construction and also proposed ones likely to be built within a number of years. Overview Due to favorable conditions in Ethiopia (water power, wind power, photovoltaics, geothermal energy) for power generation, the country avoids exploiting and importing fossil fuels as much as possible. As Ethiopia is a quickly developing country, the demand for electricity grows by 30% each year. This results in a very dynamic situation with many power plants being planned simultaneously or being under construction. In the year 2014 Ethiopia had – according to an estimation of the CIA – an annual electricity production of 9.5 TWh and was at position 101 worldwide. The total installed capacity was ~2,4 GWe, GWe (position 104). In July 2017, the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Iceland
Iceland ( is, Ísland; ) is a Nordic island country in the North Atlantic Ocean and in the Arctic Ocean. Iceland is the most sparsely populated country in Europe. Iceland's capital and largest city is Reykjavík, which (along with its surrounding areas) is home to over 65% of the population. Iceland is the biggest part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge that rises above sea level, and its central volcanic plateau is erupting almost constantly. The interior consists of a plateau characterised by sand and lava fields, mountains, and glaciers, and many glacial rivers flow to the sea through the lowlands. Iceland is warmed by the Gulf Stream and has a temperate climate, despite a high latitude just outside the Arctic Circle. Its high latitude and marine influence keep summers chilly, and most of its islands have a polar climate. According to the ancient manuscript , the settlement of Iceland began in 874 AD when the Norwegian chieftain Ingólfr Arnarson became the first p ...
