In this post, i'm going to list all the most important dams in South Africa.
Most of those dam reservoirs are for domestic and irrigation purposes while other bigger ones are wont to generate power for electricity (hydropower).For a dam to be classified as large in South Africa, it must meet certain criteria like the peak and therefore the impounds.Dams with a height of over 15 meters are considered.
The dam was originally called the Verwoerd Dam.It is located on the brink of a town called Norvalspont and borders Eastern Cape and Free State provinces.When was Gariep Dam built?
This dam features a height of 88m, a length of 914m, and a complete water capacity of 5,340,600 mega-liters of water.
