In the event of an emergency, there is no specific plan of collaboration in place between the utility and AACG. In the city, there is a Distribution Control Centre (DCC) that manages the Medium Voltage system as well as a separate Emergency Maintenance Section. Although the DCC has a computer-based system at its disposal, it is not fully operational. The system is not dual redundant, but is subject to an off-line backup every week. Addis Ababa does not have any specific contingency plan or funding in place to cope with severe disruption of the system or unpredicted events that may cause dysfunction of the system or damages to the equipment. The system is successfully designed to carry out fault repairs or routine work without isolating the entire cycle, as there are several loops and redundancies that permit isolation of the faulty section with minimal impact to customers. However, restructuring on the network is a continuous process to cope with the rapid demand growth and the AADMP is expected to define needed investments.
