Abstracts

EN
At the beginning of the article the author gave general information on the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) underling geographical and energy resources aspects. Then the author analysed the possibility to build the dam complex on Congo River (political, economic and technical conditions and requirements). The fulfillment of such project could take effect for the position of the DRC as a state in Africa. In this way the DRC could become a sectoral superpower on the Continent (main supplier of electricity for whole Africa).
