Harare - Zimbabwe and Zambia face possible electricity challenges following the reduction of power generation at Lake Kariba due to declining water levels in the water body.
“The lake level is currently five metres above the minimum operating level when it should be eight above the minimum operating level at this time of the year,” ZRA, the authority jointly constituted by Zambia and Zimbabwe, said in a statement Friday. Owing to the below normal rains recorded to date, ZRA said the inflows into the lake had been below average, leading to the water levels at Lake Kariba dropping by over three metres from October 2018 to February 2019.
The move would ensure water is available for power generation into the 2020 season, ZRA said, adding that the Kariba catchment area was expected to receive below normal rains for the rest of the 2018/2019 rainfall season.
