said dr Abbas Shraghi The rains in the Blue Nile Basin began to increase, as it currently falls at a rate of 100 million m3 / day, and the Renaissance Dam lake increased by close to one billion m3, bringing the total until the end of June to about 14 billion m3, and 3 billion m3 remain short of last year’s stock. Which stopped at 17 billion m3, it will be compensated during the first half of next July, then the fourth storage will start until mid-September.
And Dr. Abbas Sharqi, on his official page on the social networking site Facebook, stated that: rains It gradually increases during the month of July, with an average of 225 million m3 / day, with a total revenue of about 7 billion m3, and the August revenue, which reaches 16 billion m3, will be reserved, with about one billion m3 passing through the eastern discharge gate, and about 6 billion m3 during the first half of September at 625 meters above sea level, with a total fourth storage of about 25 billion cubic meters, according to some pictures from the site, which refer “approximately” to about 625 meters for the middle corridor and the sides to about 628 meters.
And Dr. Abbas Sharaki continued that the satellite images of Wednesday, June 28, 2023 showed a slight increase in the reservoir of the Renaissance Dam, in addition to the operation of one turbine, and this is evident through the weakness of the vortices in the receiving basin, with the discharge from the eastern drainage gate increasing slightly from the past weeks at a rate of about 30%. – 35 million m3 / day, and if the two turbines were working 12 hours a day, they could pass 100 million m3 / day, and this was sufficient in the past months of drought, and then there is no need to open the eastern discharge gate that wastes water for Ethiopia because it does not pass through the turbines, but due to the operation Ethiopia has kept the eastern discharge gate open at half its capacity, and as a result, Ethiopia has lost 4 billion m3 during the past six months, which went to Sudan And Egypt, and this water is considered from the revenue of the new year, as Ethiopia began to seize them these days from the beginning of the rainy season.
