View moreThe Kariba North hydroelectric power station includes the Kariba North Bank and Kariba North Bank Extension power plants. The hydro station sources water for power generation from Kariba Dam located on the Zambezi River at the border of Zambia and Zimbabwe. The dam has a water storage capacity of up to 185 billion cubic meters (bcm).
China’s Export-Import Bank provided a syndicated loan of £253.47m ($315.6m), while the remaining £84.73m ($105.5m) was funded by Development Bank of Southern Africa. Sir Alexander Gibb & Partners (Gibb) was awarded the contract for engineering work to construct the 600MW Kariba North hydroelectric power station.
The dam has a water storage capacity of up to 185 billion cubic meters (bcm). The Kariba South power station located on the southern bank of Zambezi River belongs to Zimbabwe. It was initially developed with a capacity of 750MW and later expanded to 1050MW by the addition of two 150MW units in March 2018.
The power generated from Kariba North power station is purchased by ZESCO under a 20-year long-term power purchase agreement approved by the Energy Regulation Board (ERB) in April 2011. The plant operates with an average operating time of 3.5 hours a day under the regulation of PPA.
The main civil construction contract was awarded to Mitchell Construction Kinnear Moodie Group in January 1971. Energoprojekt was engaged by the government of Zambia to complete the work of Kariba North power station after Mitchell Construction went into receivership. EDF Hydro Engineering Centre rendered project ownership services for the project.
The expansion project was completed in June 2010. The KNBE power station consists of two 180MW vertical-shaft Francis turbines with a rated discharge 227.6m 3 /s operating at a head of 89m for each single unit. It has two intake chambers for water at an elevation of 458m. The underground powerhouse is 24m wide and 51m in length.
