Description

The Porto Colombia Hydroelectric Project consists of the construction on the Rio Grande River of the Porto Colombia hydroelectric station to be equipped with four 90-MW units. The unit cost for this 360-MW installation (excluding interest during construction) would be about US$175 per kw, which is considered to be low cost hydro. The generated energy would be delivered to the interconnected system over 345-kv and 138-kv transmission lines. This transmission system has been planned along the lines recommended in the South-Central Power Study and has been confirmed by a recent review in connection with the proposed loans.
