Evaporation of water from the reservoir is expected to be at 3% of the annual inflow volume of 48.8 km3 (11.7 cu mi), which corresponds to an average volume lost through evaporation of around 1.5 km3 (0.36 cu mi) annually. This was considered negligible by the IPoE.[36] For comparison, Lake Nasser in Egypt loses between 10–16 km3 (2.4–3.8 cu mi) annually through evaporation.[43]
If they really wanted more water they could just lower the levels of Lake Nasser in winter, and build more wind generators. They would even get foreign aid for that if they just stopped bitching about Ethopias water dam and their colonial era exclusive water rights.
