Dear Colleagues,

As we all know, Uganda is seeking potential partners in the coming year to develop East Africa’s first nuclear power plant. The project, expected to cost as much as $9 billion, seeks to boost the country’s electricity generation.

The government is working with China, Russia and the U.S. as it seeks investors, according to Energy Ministry Permanent Secretary Irene Batebe, adding that construction of the 2,000-megawatt plant, which could be operational by 2031, may occur in two phases due to the expected cost.

I am thrilled to let you know that Mr. Akisophel Kisolo, Chairman, Atomic Energy Council, Uganda confirmed his keynote speech at the 6th Middle East and Africa Nuclear Industry Congress 2023 , April 26-27, Cairo, Egypt (The 6th MEA NIC 2023)
 
The 6th MEA NIC 2023 is the only platform to explore latest MEA nuclear energy potentials, discuss proper reactor options & implementation strategies for MEA NPP projects, update on new build and life extension projects in MEA countries, together with innovative technology demonstration to empowering MEA nuclear energy development.
