Sodo–Moyale–Suswa High Voltage Power Line

[1] The power line was constructed to enable Ethiopia to transfer surplus electricity to Kenya, for sale to the countries of the East African Community and the Great Lakes Region.

[5] From Sodo, the power line runs in a south-easterly direction for approximately 400 km (249 mi), as the crow flies, to Moyale, at the international border with Kenya.

[6] From Moyale, the power line follows a south-westerly course to end near Suswa, in Kajiado County, approximately 600 km (373 mi) away, as the crow flies.

CET was also responsible for cross-border cabling and a 40 km (25 mi) section in Kenya, near a place called Logologo, and the converter station in Sodo.
