About This Project

The Regional Rusumo Falls Hydroelectric Project (RRFP) is a hydropower project under joint development by the Governments of Republic of Burundi, Republic of Rwanda and United Republic of Tanzania through a commonly owned Rusumo Power Company (RPCL). The project is located at Rusumo Falls, at the common border of Rwanda and Tanzania on River Kagera. The power production facilities are located entirely on the south side of the bank of the Kagera River in Tanzania, while the substation is located on the northern side of the bank of the river in Rwanda. The power generated by the three Kaplan turbines will be around 80 MW.
ABC CONTRACTING and its sister company RWANDAMOTOR, as Andritz’s subcontractors will be responsible for the supply of the manpower necessary for the assembly of the whole electromechanical part of this project as well as all the necessary installations for the perfect running of the works.
