Last September, the Ecuadorian government announced a plan to build Ecuador's biggest hydroelectric plant Coca-Codo-Sinclair, which would have a capacity of 1,500 Megawatts.

The plant will be located some 75 kilometers east to Quito and will cost about $2 billion.

Chinese company Sinohydro-Andes will provide 85 percent of the cost, through the Export-Import Bank of China.

The remaining 15 percent will be funded by Ecuador and Argentina.

Ecuador has been troubled by power shortages, it spent roughly $26.9 million on importing electricity from Colombia in 2008, according to a report issued by the National Center for Energy Control in January.
