NewzThe Zambezi River Authority (ZRA) has reduced the water allocation for power generation at the Kariba Dam to 23 billion cubic metres (BCM) for the year 2027. This decision impacts Zimbabwe's future energy generation capacity at the shared facility.
The reduction in water allocation is a preemptive measure in response to warnings of a potentially dry season. Authorities have attributed the deteriorating water outlook directly to El Niño conditions, which threaten to severely impact water levels in the Zambezi River basin.
