This power line is planned to evacuate the power from Karuma to Kawanda, where it can be distributed to the regional customers.[3] Associated power linesTwo other high voltage power lines are under construction to evacuate power from Karuma: (a) The {{convert|60|km|0}}, 400kV Karuma–Olwiyo High Voltage Power Line, connects Karuma Power Station to a substation in Olwiyo, Nwoya District, for onward transmission to Pakwach, Nebbi, Paidha, Arua, Koboko, Yumbe and Moyo.[1] and (b) The {{convert|80|km|0}} 132 kV Karuma–Lira High Voltage Power Line, which connects Karuma to Lira.[1] ConstructionSinohydro Corporation Limited, the main contractor for the construction of Karuma Power Station is the contractor on this project. The supervising engineering company is "Intec Gopa International Energy Consultants". The budgeted cost of construction, including the cost of the other two energy evacuation lines from Karuma is approximately US$290 million. Funding was obtained from the Exim Bank of China. Construction began in 2015, with commercial commissioning expected in 2018.[1][4] See also
