[2] The Jiji dam is upstream, directing water along a supply conduit to a tunnel which leads to the forebay.

It will be owned and operated by REGIDESO Burundi, part of the Ministry of Hydraulics, Energy and Mines.

[1] The Jiji Hydroelectric Power Plant will exploit a head height of 434 metres (1,424 ft) with a capacity of 32.5 MW.

Water is routed from this reservoir through a grit trap to remove solid matter, then through a 1,100 metres (3,600 ft) tunnel to the head of the penstock.

The two lines run east 2.3 kilometres (1.4 mi) to the Horezo switchyard on RP 403 highway.
