Akosombo is an important city in southeastern Ghana, located on the lower Volta River and famous for the world-famous Akosombo Dam. Completed in 1965, the dam is not only one of the largest hydroelectric power stations in Africa, but has also created the world's largest man-made lake, Lake Volta, which provides more than 70% of Ghana's electricity supply and underpins the country's industrialization and economic development. The city is located in Ghana's agricultural and trade corridor, with cocoa and oil palm crops in abundance, and lakes created by dams that facilitate fishing and inland waterways. Akosombo is both an energy town and an ecotourism attraction, drawing tourists every year to explore the spectacular dams and lakes and mountains, and is a perfect blend of Ghana's modern engineering and natural resources.
