Project Description
ADC conducted a Feasibility Study on behalf of a private mine to assess the feasibility of a potential High Voltage cross-border transmission line, supplying electricity to the mines in the DRC directly from Zambia.
This study included network simulations, stability studies, cost estimates as well as high level schedules indicating the development, design and construction phases.
