scenario question
(a) Country X is a least-developed country with low GDP but an abundance of hydropower resources. Its neighbour, Country Z, is an industrialized nation with high GDP, a rapidly growing population and dwindling energy resources. Country Z is keen to purchase electricity from Country X, promising to fund the necessary infrastructure (large dams, power plants and transmission network) to harness Country X's hydropower and transmit the power produced to their country. Country Z has stated that the construction of this infrastructure would bring additional income to Country Z. Do you agree with Country Z's statement? Justify you opinion.
