MugereHydroelectric Power Station (French: Centrale Hydroélectrique de Mugere) is an 8 megawatts (11,000 hp) run-of-the-river hydroelectric power station in the Bujumbura Rural Province of Burundi.
The 8 MW Mugere Hydroelectric Power Station is in the Commune of Kabezi, Bujumbura Rural Province.
[3] The original purpose of the plant was to provide power to a Chinese textile mill and to Bujumbara.
[4] A 35 kV line was built in 1982 linking the Mugere hydroelectric plant to Bujumbura.
[1] The output of the Mugere hydroelectric generating station drops considerably in the dry season since it has no reservoir to store water, but relies on the river flow.
