Ambassade des États-Unis en Éthiopie

L'ambassade des États-Unis en Éthiopie est la représentation diplomatique des États-Unis d'Amérique auprès de l'Éthiopie. Elle est située à Addis-Abeba, la capitale du pays, et son ambassadeur est, depuis 2023, Ervin Jose Massinga (en). Histoire L'Éthiopie et les États-Unis établissent des relations diplomatiques le 27 décembre 1903, lorsque le roi Menelik II d'Éthiopie et le représentant américain Robert P. Skinner signent un traité de commerce. La première légation américaine en Éthiopie est établie le 6 juillet 1909, Hoffman Philip présentant ses lettres de créance à Addis-Abeba. Début mai 1936, une attaque contre l’ambassade des États-Unis a lieu. Le 6 mai, l'Italie envahit l'Éthiopie et occupe Addis-Abeba, provoquant le retrait de la représentation diplomatique américaine en Éthiopie et la fermeture de la légation américaine. Le ministre-résident et consul général des États-Unis, Cornelius Van H. Engert, quitte le pays le 4 mars 1937 et le consulat est fermé le 31 mars. Rouverte le 31 août 1943, la légation est élevée au rang d'ambassade le 28 juin 1949, quand George Robert Merrell présente ses lettres de créance.Réciproquement, la légation éthiopienne aux États-Unis est élevée au rang d'ambassade le 27 septembre 1949. Tout au long de la guerre froide, les relations entre les deux nations demeurent tendues alors que l'Éthiopie s'aligne sur l'Union soviétique à partir de 1977. Les relations commencent à s’améliorer considérablement après la chute du régime communiste de Mengistu en 1991. En 2011, les États-Unis inaugurent à Addis-Abeba ce qui est devenue la plus grande ambassade américaine en Afrique subsaharienne. L'ambassade est voisine de la mission des États-Unis auprès de l'Union africaine.

Přehrada Tekeze

Přehrada Tekeze je přehradní nádrž s hydroelektrárnou na stejnojmenné řece v severní části Etiopie. Přesněji se nachází zhruba 80 km západně od města Mekele v hlubokém kaňonu na rozhraní regionů Amharsko a Tigraj. Oblouková betonová hráz s dvojitým zakřivením, jejíž délka činí 450 metrů, je vysoká 188 m a v době svého dokončení byla nejvyšší v Africe. Celkový objem nádrže dosahuje 9,293 km³. Plocha povodí řeky k profilu hráze má rozlohu 29 404 km². Průměrná nadmořská výška této hornaté oblasti, jejíž převážná část se nalézá na území Amharska, je 2064 m. Využití Výroba elektrické energie Hlavní účel přehrady je zadržovat dostatečné množství vody pro výrobu elektrické energie. Z celkového objemu nádrže 9,3 km³ lze pro provoz elektrárny využít zásobní objem 5,3 km³. Elektrárna se čtyřmi Francisovými turbínami s celkovým výkonem 300 MW je umístěna na pravém břehu v kaverně vytesané ve skále. Délka podzemního prostoru činí 98 m. Jeho šířka je 18 m a výška dosahuje 38 m. Hydroelektrárnu s etiopskou energetickou sítí v Mekele spojuje 105 km dlouhé přenosové vedení. Vliv na vodní režim a zemědělství Další význam přehrady spočívá v regulaci nevyrovnaných průtoků řeky. Po dokončení stavby hráze a uvedení elektrárny do provozu v roce 2009 byl výrazně změněn vodní režim dolní Tekeze a řeky Atbary. V období dešťů přehrada zadržuje vodu, která pak během suchého období slouží k nalepšování průtoku. To má značný význam pro zemědělce v Súdánu, kteří hospodaří níže po proudu. Změna vodního režimu však kromě výhod pro zemědělce přináší i ekologické problémy. Množství vody v řece nad přehradou v jednotlivých měsících i letech výrazně kolísá. Ročně do přehrady přitéká průměrně 3,75 km³ vody. Odkazy Reference Externí odkazy Obrázky, zvuky či videa k tématu Přehrada Tekeze na Wikimedia Commons
Tekezé Dam

Tekezé Dam is a double-curvature arch dam located between Amhara and Tigray regions of Ethiopia. It is situated on the Tekezé River, a tributary of the Nile that flows through one of the deepest canyons in the world. Overview CWGS was contracted to build the Tekezé Dam. The hydroelectric project was completed in February 2009. Its final cost was $360 million, which was $136 million over budget. The dam was Ethiopia's largest public works project. The dam helped to reduce power shortages as Ethiopia's power demand increases. At the time of its completion, the 188 metres (617 ft) Tekezé Dam was Africa's largest double-curvature arch dam. The resulting reservoir is 105 km2 large and it has a capacity of 9.3 billion m3 of water. Tekeze Power Station The powerhouse contains four 75 MW (101,000 hp) turbines, generating 300 MW (400,000 hp) of electricity. A 105 kilometres (65 mi) transmission line connects it to the national grid at Mekelle. See also Energy in Ethiopia List of power stations in Ethiopia Water politics in the Nile Basin References

Плотина Тэкэзэ

Плотина Тэкэзэ — арочная плотина с двойной кривизной, расположенная на границе провинций Амхара и Тыграй в Эфиопии. Она расположена на реке Тэкэзе, притоке Нила, которая протекает через один из самых глубоких каньонов в мире. Обзор Контракт на строительство плотины Тэкэзе был заключен с компанией CWGS. Гидроэнергетический проект был завершен в феврале 2009 года. Его окончательная стоимость составила 360 миллионов долларов, что на 136 миллионов долларов превышало заложенный бюджет. Дамба стала крупнейшим общественным проектом в Эфиопии. Плотина помогла сократить дефицит электроэнергии, поскольку спрос на электроэнергию в Эфиопии увеличивается. На момент завершения строительства плотина Тэкэзе имела длину 188 метров (617 футов) и была крупнейшей в Африке арочной плотиной с двойной кривизной. Электростанция Тэкэзе Электростанция оснащена четырьмя турбинами мощностью 75 МВт (101 000 л. с.), которые вырабатывают 300 МВт (400 000 л. с.) электроэнергии. Линия электропередачи протяженностью 105 километров (65 миль) соединяет её с национальной сетью в Мэкэле. Примечания
