Led by Andualem Siae Seboka, EEP's Deputy CEO, have briefed the South Sudanese Minister of Ethiopia's green energy capacity which soon will start generating "more than seventy thousand gigawatts, predominantly utilizing environment-friendly sources," Ethiopia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs related.
Mr. Andualem has also told Mr. Marcello that, to avoid challenges posed by the dry season, as well as to make the energy supply reliable, the Ethiopian Government is diversifying the energy sources.
He highlighted Ethiopia’s commitments to cover the Eastern African Countries by expanding the existing electricity interconnections and setting up new lines. He also expressed Ethiopia’s readiness to assess and identify better ways to interconnect Ethiopia and South Sudan via the energy grid.
Stating the importance of creating strong socio-economic interrelation between the two countries, Peter Marcello, on his part, has expressed appreciation for Ethiopia’s initiative.
Following the discussion, he has indicated directions for further deliberations with the concerned team from the two sides.
