The Nangbeto Dam is the 52 m high, 443 m long embankment dam on the Mono River in Togo's Plateaux Region, built from 1984 to supply power, irrigation water and fisheries to Togo and Benin, with a 65.6 MW power station commissioned in June 1987 and managed by the binational utility Communaute Electrique du Benin. Wikipedia says the project was financed by the World Bank and African Development Bank at a cost of US$98.22 million, and the IDA development credit agreement of 1984 lists SDR 14.1 million from the IDA alongside loans from BADEA, the OPEC Fund, the African Development Bank, KfW and the Kuwait Fund and grants from CIDA and FAC, without stating a total cost.
