Brazil Belo Monte Dam Unable to Deliver Enough Power in 2016
Brazil's Belo Monte dam, the world's third largest hydropower plant, will lack the needed transmission lines to deliver the energy expected for the grid in 2016 due to construction delays, Brazil's electricity watchdog Aneel said in a report seen by Reuters on Tuesday.
Delays in transmission lines for new generation projects is one of the principal factors for Brazil's chronic electricity sector crisis.
