The Gurara II Power Station is a proposed 360 megawatts hydroelectric power station across the Gurara River in Nigeria. The power station is owned and is under development by the Federal Government of Nigeria. The Exim Bank of China has agreed to lend US$1 billion towards the construction of this renewable energy project. The Nigerian Federal Executive Council accepted that offer in May 2019.
