Top 10 Largest Dams in Africa

In this video, we'll present the top 10 largest dams in terms of electrical power generation capacity. Investment in Africa by country is at all-time high. The continent of Africa in the last decade has seen a resurgence in the investment in construction of massive dams in order to supply more regulated water and to generate hydroelectricity (renewable energy).

The Kariba dam is one of the biggest dams in Africa, which was mistakenly not included on our list. It's a double curvature concrete arch dam in the Kariba Gorge of the Zambezi river basin between Zambia and Zimbabwe...
