Complete silting of certain dams due to heightened erosion caused by more abundant precipitation leading to the complete shutdown of a few hydroelectric power plants, the most endangered among them being the Marangara, Buhiga and Kayenzi plants. More frequent flooding of electricity production infrastructure like in Mugere, leading to production shutdowns for longer periods of time. Increased runoff from land degradation in the hydroelectric power plants’ watersheds.
