Nuclear energy is quite unsafe, especially with the impunity and neglect that we have in the country. Reminds me of that Indian Bhopal chemical blast that killed a million. 2009/7/27 Njoroge Tito <titonjoroge@gmail.com>
My thoughts...
Coal,diesel, water.. not the future.
i always ask myself this though - what would it take to have nuclear power in Kenya? Do we have enough demand? Do we have enough capacity to manage without creating "hiroshima"s? Do we have the funds/funding to get it? Dont we have uranium deposits somewhere? Egypt will always beat us at manufacturing due to low power prices. We cannot constantly rely on poor rains for power.
Anyway, future is in renewable sources. i.e solar esp with global warming, wind. I like the Ngong Hills wind thing + the one in Turkana. I always hope that we shall frog jump the "nuclear" stage to renewable sources, same way we jumped the landlines and credit cards to mobile phones and Mpesa.

we dont have to rely on coal, or diesel or any other fossil fuel. . .
.. there is currently alot of untapped wind energy that is free, clean and renewable. . . .all the coal and diesel is used to produce power anyway so we might as well use wind, tidal and solar as energy sources. .. . . the technology is there what isn't is the profit that goes into maintanance and thats why the goverment is armtwisted by multinationals not to develop alternative sources. . . . .

I agree, think of the environment. However. Look at this practically. China, India, US etc, are currently burning loads of coal. Its cheap. We have no energy. We are burning diesel. We are still polluting, while driving up global energy pricing and paying a premium for the energy. Sad thing is that you need to have a large scale economy to consider nuclear. We cant get there without enough energy. There is clean coal technology. Reduces the footprint. We can plant trees. The situation though is untenable...
