Zambezi
From Wacklepedia - The Free Encyclopedia
The
Zambezi (also spelled
Zambesi) is a river in southern
Africa. The 2,750 km long river has its source in
Zambia and flows through
Angola, along the border of Zambia and
Zimbabwe, to
Mozambique, where it empties into the
Indian Ocean.
There are two main sources of hydro-electric power on the river. These are the Kariba scheme which provides power to Zambia and Zimbabwe and the Cahora Bassa scheme in Mozambique which provides power to South Africa. There is also a smaller scheme at the Victoria Falls.
