Furthermore‚ of the remaining 250 MW capacity installed on the canal‚ only 50 MW can be sustained on a continuous basis. Not only does the project generate less power than originally assessed‚ but when the electricity used to run the canal networks is subtracted‚ a net deficit of 80 MW occurs. That is‚ when the irrigation component is counted‚ the project will consume more power than it generates.
