the game changer and when one talks about the n a g on, particularly in the continental voc because there are many dimensions that one can talk about. africa as we know is divided into 50 full countries. some save $55.00, and it is up steps that the even order for africa to enjoy the dividends of the 4th and 5th industrial revolution, energy is going to be unimportant comp. and then we say this, all this africa did not intimately engage in the dividends of the 1st 2nd and 3rd industrial revolution. many countries in africa today rely on hydro electric power . and all of us will know the power stations that are to be found in the demo project through 5, because phone go in, got them in go on in. got to under of cost the same as the ink a $3.00 which never appears to come into fruition. in west africa, we know quite

a bit of power. the a is generated from hydro electric kind of cause that is also true. when we go to the northern part with the iceland hide um and then gone on the new stuff because we also know that type rule is the king of the generation of energy in most of africa and is also true of cost that in a number of countries can bring the leading and dizzy good. the g o some of power plays a critical role in the provision of energy as a does a bit of nuclear power in the south and part of africa when, which is the next phase of energy generation. when we talk about clean energy and debris and energy is beginning to acquire prior to place and of costs sorta. we know that the motor, all cool, prides itself do have one of the largest solar funds anyway, that was on the, as me of and in the direction of ensuring that solar power is

a prime mover. as africa moves in the direction of industrialization and not not show, therefore, we are dealing with energy on africa. on the time when there are many questions that are being lost and ought to be asked about off because the bus to, to industrialize an energy cannot be dropped of about in a vacuum. it must be dropped off in the context of giving us the opportunity to give practical meaning that the things that i forgot is impressed the didn't do it. and also, as it is now, is driven by several agendas of cost. the overall agenda is africa. print to 63, who's design is to ensure that africa becomes a prime. yeah. in the world that has how is a give context in terms of energy generation?

the question that we want to talk about is this. how are we buying to ensure that the continental africa has energy that is properly diversified in quantities that come by? what industry you not have. i've tried the need the, the sign that i see at the output is the media can generate enough solar power for the entire continental buffet. that is a good big letters, but can we use the sun? that is to be found in the color. heidi, there is up in the media. can we use that sun to ensure that we have solar power? it's gonna also be said in the side and region in countries such as my lead book, you know, fi, so shod center, the marty thing, the, on the general region. there is a put unity for having solar power in a very major way in can yellowstone, the eastern bottles, canyon fonts,

to be sealed. you can also have must've solar power as we can in demand. grab an world quote is already leading in this be good. i mean, these days the time has changed. solar power is the music to the years of those who know that climate change is having a very negative impact outside of solar power. when, when is a main, just source of power? and it is, as one would say, serendipitous, that we s 15 at the place where wind mills with us. and we are celebrating the fact that if we on this wind power, then we can have clean energy that is available or most us or times. and that would be a very good mix in the oceans around the cost or part of africa boards in the indian ocean. the mediterranean, under of cost of the atlantic waves can also be used to on his power. so the,

we have been good mix. so power of cause one cannot run away from the fact the tide rate. electric power is the king of all the sources of power. and it is today, accepted after research, is that in places such as the congo, eva the in goods. um, if it is properly kindest, kind of generate file that would satisfy most of sub saharan africa for the next 10 to 15 years. and i would myself encourage that. we look at these sources of power in good them is a good source of power. the grand renaissance done in the field is another source of power. then when we get a pilot and tons and e a which is just about to be completed in terms of the, is yet another one that we ought to look at the color i boss, set them on the curry, but times these are sources of hydro electric power, which can be honest and of cost, even the us $1.00 i dump,

required the sum wants to be done, as indeed on the new jersey on the plane genevas. so the tide red rector power is something that we must not know. it is of concept sceptical that there was now frowns upon flush the flu and they are those who believe that going in that direction is only for a short time and we would be migrating away from any pilot that is generated from flushing flip. but i think under different things, i think the fossil fluid is then with us. and what we ought to be thinking about is how to clean flush the flu. so that these i'm says to the god of green energy. and if the gods are satisfied that we are pinning force, if well sufficiently then is something that is going to be useful to the continental, vice versa, in a very major way. and at one every step thing, the fact that we ought to have energy that is sufficient to clean and good enough

to power our industries. new energy is something that we don't talk about as often as we should. and i'm aware that in different parts of the wild nuclear energy was being found, the phone because of security reasons. we remember in europe some of the nuclear plants who are being shot in russia in not in america. and we of the view that nuclear energy is something that can be used and use effectively in a manner that can be clean. and we are of the view on di whole, these view that the insect, if you see the kind of union that is being generated in countryside, doesn't these yet? we can actually use nuclear energy effectively. i know you've gone days already engaged in this conversation. south africa has of course, had nuclear energy for some time kenya is engaged in this conversation, but i would, i saw one that when we talk new play image,

we do it from different perspective. perspective number one from the, the general communities that cost dealing with it from the west african perspective, the mug lab dealing with it from the prospect, the perspective of them. i'll grab some throw off with the dealing with that from the doc perspective, side duck on his thoughts with the so that we combine our resources on board ro from as, as well, deployed nuclear energy in a very effective way. and there is no shortage of technology in this any good. and we are not to re invent the wheel, but nuclear energy, we have the resources and we can actually use it effectively when we talk about nuclear energy. also may very yet ask, where do we go for new energy that can fit the scheme of things in africa and it is not lost on me. the russia has been very active in this space on the south and exploring the meetings i've been held between russia and

a number of off with on countries. and i believe the russia can collaborate with the countries of africa with a view to have been new. the energy that is customized to do with the needs of the continent of africa. and if this is done and done in a creative mind, you know, model that is designed not only to have the pop loans built, but the knowledge you transferred, then that would be a symbiotic relationship that russia con, foliage with the continent of africa. and that was 5 growth and strength and the manner in which we embrace new energy in a productive manner. as us us saying, the source of energy, we should respect the dictates of clean image. the most critical thing in order to have sustainable energy is to have a good mix of image or you have

a good mix so that there is no already lions on hydro. electric file, there is no, all the very lines or do you assemble? there is no old very line some solar. there is no all very lions and when there is no all very lions on nuclear, but we have what i mean me to describe as the will say, all the sources of energy is when you have a pool, say of sunset. so energy, then you are able to pick and choose what then can be directed on injected in to the domestic every now on what goes into the industrial every now. but ultimately the question that we ought to ask is this. the question is, can we as a continent the afore, recognize that without having energy that is sustainable energy, that is the renewable, the continent of africa cannot industrialize on the continent of africa needs to

industrialize the costs. industrialization is what is going to get on the truly bodies of the agenda print to $63.00. we only have practical meaning when it is clear that we are typical of having to fuck me is which now outsource the places i just saw, you know? so it's just the key in the continent, and we can have a some, but he has once famously said, have been the democratic republic of congo being the equivalent of the silicon valley. because to be of image that we've can have this, i have been a funk 3 of the was because we have energy that we can have the horn of africa being on the industrial path because to be of energy. and because of that, we can then participate with the log in the reno production in our ceos. energy in my view is the my doesn't all of the change that we need are the continental 5

for the spa. i'll you can on the growth on to stand. those are the dina of conversation, where industrialization is the subject. yet another source of energy that we don't talk about as much as we should is called for additionally called was the source of energy. and i know for a fact that many african countries, the south africa, i believe, is in this space of power station that fired by quotes in kenya . there was a time when we contemplated the country to use the fill that was generated. don't go file color power, such as a vintage on many others, and they are those now who come pain us on the wrong. the struggle for clean energy . well, what's the sale of a bundle? quote, all is not good, but some of us including myself for the view the, the was,

is moving in a very interesting direction that warranty is on. clean now, can be made clean, and therefore what we ought to be talking about is how do we make pain call energy costs? in my estimation for the next 20 to 30 years or even beyond, we are going to have coal as unimportant source of energy. and we also come must not a bundle it simply because we have been told we must be green. and this does not mean that the climate change denies. we upset that there is some negative impact on the climate as long as we don't do a lot of things, but color cannot be abundant in my view will not be abundant. i need is a duty to collaborate with those who are generating a proper technology and we are solved in the continent of africa. must also psych for technology that is going to help us to clean color so that it becomes the

traditional source of energy that it has always been sick guns by systems about under, around the continent of africa con, nevermind. but the time now is to take a break to you after that break. as we continue to talk about the mazda clinton in the continent of africa, the wrong just don't you have to say power and engagement equals the trails. when so many find themselves quilts of parts, we choose to look so common ground the the

history now can fund that partial go. what the fuss you will pay country to start the a be up or celebrity on colonize ation. anxiety as the 14 through to the 15th century, the portuguese explorer as well ready moving out of lisbon to survey different parts of the continent of africa. if there was any job. the presence of several federal house which was penalized designed by the put to gays, to claim $33.00 to be found in different parts of africa. you will note that as you move through the cost of 5 or west on africa, up to the eastern time where you find one human side just for jesus, you see the footprints of the portuguese.
