AFHP was prioritised as the first hydropower plant because it was the only project with a full feasibility study completed, it has a higher plant load factor than the alternatives, a smaller reservoir and a levelised unit cost in the same range as the most attractive alternatives.
This paragraph is the problem. So, Amaila was the ONLY project with full feasibility study completed. HENCE, how do we know that Amaila is the best choice when no feasibility study was done on alternatives. For example, Tiger Fall? You cannot speak of alternatives when you have not even assessed the opportunity cost or alternatives. I have not read the report, but if this is what it says I would have serious doubt.
They did evaluate others but come to the early conclusion that Amelia was the best. You can argue they should have went to the enth degree however, they concluded on Amelia.
