Description

Description

Ethiopia plans to develop a 2,400 MW nuclear power project to advance its nuclear energy ambitions. The project is to be fully financed by Russia through a partnership between the state-owned ROSATOM and the Ethiopian Electric Power (EEP). The project follows the Build-Own-Operate (BOO) model, where Russia finances, constructs, and retains ownership of the energy infrastructure. This project is part of Russia's global energy strategy and is similar to projects in Egypt and Bangladesh. The project could generate long-term profits exceeding $40 billion but raises concerns about sovereignty, renewable potential, and financial dependency.
