Modeled scenarios

To showcase the importance of the indirect and induced impacts of the project construction and finance characteristics, we first present the economy-wide changes at an aggregate level (GDP, employment and household welfare) and sectoral level coming from the commissioning of the Bui Dam without the hydropower generation uncertainty stemming from hydrological flow variability in the Volta Basin. The results are structured across three construction and finance scenarios:
The additional hydropower production capacity introduced in these three scenarios is applied in the 2013-2067 timeframe and was determined using the water balance model (see above):
