The Grand Inga is the world’s largest hydropower scheme, set to be built on the Congo River in the DRC. It’s one of the priority projects in the Programme for Infrastructure Development in Africa, PIDA. The DRC government has announced it wants to sell shares to anyone on the continent interested in owning the dam in return for the 80 billion dollars needed to build it. CCTV’s Girum Chala is at a PIDA conference in Abidjan, where the DRC made this announcement.
