Hydro-Electric Power (H.E.P) is the generation of electric power (electricity) from water. This is achieved through the damming of rivers and the use of river water to turn or drive turbines leading to the generation of electricity. A dam is an extensive area occupied by water trapped on a river course.   FACTORS WHICH FAVOUR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HYDRO-ELECTRIC POWER (H.E.P) PROJECTS IN AFRICA Presence of relief/waterfalls ensures the development of Hydro-Electric Power. Abundance of rainfall in Africa also helps to supply water to rivers regularly. There is also high volume of water in rivers which is necessary for Hydro-Electric Power development i.e. presence of a big river. Presence of…
