Liebe Wüstenschiffer,
wer weiss was Genaueres über das Projekt 25 km flussaufwärts von Téméra. Angeblich wollen die Chinesen den Fluss am Beginn des Défilés zur Stromgewinnung aufstauen. Meine Nachfragen in Gao "zwischen den Jahren" waren nicht so gewinnbringend, da Dauerpartystimmung herrschte und angeblich alle Zuständigen und Fachkundigen "außer Landes" sich befänden.

Hallo Ferdi,

Niger, Mali secure Islamic funding for new dams
03.12.2007
NIAMEY, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Landlocked Niger and Mali have secured more than $400 million from mainly Islamic donors to build dams on West Africa's Niger river to generate power and help grow food for the largely desert countries, officials said. Donors at a summit organised by the Islamic Development Bank last week in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, pledged $236 million to build a dam in Niger, and nearly $200 million for a similar project in neighbouring Mali, the two countries' governments said ... mehr

Niger begins building dam for food, electricity
Mon 4 Aug 2008, 13:34 GMT
NIAMEY (Reuters) - Niger began building its Kandadji dam at the weekend, launching a project expected to cost several hundred million dollars and boost power generation and farming in the landlocked African country. The Kandadji dam will be funded by the Islamic Development Bank, which has pledged $236 million for a project that has been discussed for nearly 40 years but is now urgently needed by one of the world's poorest and fastest growing populations. Niger, a uranium-producing desert nation, often faces food shortages and imports 90 percent of its electricity from neighbouring Nigeria, which itself suffers frequent power cuts. Niger's untapped oil reserves are due to be developed in a $5 billion Chinese-funded programme. "No other development project will have sparked so much long term interest or such high expectations," Prime Minister Seini Oumarou said in comments broadcast by state television. President Mamadou Tandja laid the first brick on Sunday at the site, some 180 km (110 miles) northwest of the capital. The dam is due for completion in 2013 ... mehr
