ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - Ethiopia opened a dam on Wednesday it says will produce 420 MW of hydropower as part of efforts to beat energy shortages and become one of Africa's only power exporters, its power utility said.

Power shortages are common in Africa and have hindered investment, even though the continent has abundant potential resources of solar, hydro, oil, gas, coal and geothermal power.

The new dam took five years to complete and cost about 370 million euros, the Ethiopian Electric Power Corporation said. The Italian government covered 220 million euros of the cost with Ethiopia paying the rest.

Ethiopia said on Wednesday that it has foiled a terrorist attack against top government officials.

The government said that security officers have arrested a number of people belonging to a terrorist group who were preparing to carry out some terrorist attacks against government officials.
