SAMBANGALOU DAM
- Location: Senegal
- Budget: €388 million
- Contractor: Vinci Construction
- Subcontractor: Kuwait Construction
- Land acquisition:
The building of this dam, 91 meters high and with a capacity of 128 MW, will allow the production of renewable energy, the development of irrigation of agricultural land as well as the supply of drinking water to nearby communities. The works will start in the first half of 2021 and will last 48 months. At peak activity, the site will hire 1,000 people recruited and trained locally.
Construction
The construction of the Samandjan dam commenced with the goal of harnessing the hydropower potential of the Konkouré River, contributing to the country's economic development and energy needs. This project involves the creation of a large reservoir formed by the dam, which serves not only for electricity generation but also for irrigation purposes, enhancing agricultural productivity in the region. The construction process required intricate engineering and environmental considerations, balancing the benefits of increased energy capacity with the ecological impact on the surrounding areas. As a critical component of Guinea's energy infrastructure, the completion of the Samandjan dam signifies a substantial stride towards sustainable development, meeting the rising demand for electricity and fostering economic growth in the region.
Technology Used
The hydropower generation project emphasizes the application of cutting-edge technologies across multiple engineering disciplines, showcasing a commitment to efficiency, sustainability, and safety. The integration of state-of-the-art technologies spans dam construction, hydroelectric power generation, and associated infrastructure, reflecting a comprehensive approach to harnessing energy from flowing water.
In dam construction, modern materials and design methodologies are likely employed to ensure the stability, durability, and safety of the structure. Advanced engineering practices, including computer-aided design (CAD) and finite element analysis (FEA), may be utilized to optimize the dam's shape, taking into account factors such as structural integrity and environmental impact.
