Nuclear power in Kenya

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In 2017, the Kenya Nuclear Electrification Board (Kneb) estimated that a 1,000 MW nuclear plant could be operational by 2027 and cost Ksh500-600 billion ($5-$6 billion),[1] to be located near a large body of water, such as the Indian Ocean, Lake Victoria or Lake Turkana.[2]

Background

In September 2010 Former Energy and Petroleum Ministry PS Patrick Nyoike announced that Kenya aimed to build a 1,000 MW nuclear power plant between 2017 and 2022.[3] The projected cost using South Korean technology was US$3.5 billion.[4] Nuclear and renewable sources of energy such as wind, solar and geothermal plants could play a major role in helping Kenya achieve middle income status, as the reduction of carbon emissions becomes a higher priority.

Nuclear energy programme

Kenya has embarked on a programme to see the country generate 1 GW (1,000 MW) from nuclear sources between 2020 and 2022. By 2030 Kenya was slated to have installed a capacity of 4 GW of nuclear energy, generating about 19% of Kenya's energy needs, meaning that nuclear power would be the second largest source of energy in Kenya coming second after geothermal power which is a clean form of energy.

The Kenya Nuclear Electricity Board (NuPEA) is in charge of spearheading this sector in the country.
