You are really a slow learner or may a terrible student academically. It is wrong to correct an article not originally yours, if you have an issue with the article, follow the link provided and drop your comment simple!
And just in case your IQ is abysmally low, you need to step up a bit.

Reading your further comments, it is galring that it is a monumental waste of time to engage you further on this matter. Enjoy the bliss.

Thanks to GEJ and his m0r0nic team and the WAILERS hoping we did not attempt the change.

See how terms are confusing people.
OP, did you not know that

1, 000 MW = 1 GW
4, 000 MW = 4 GW.


So how does generating 1 GW of electricity make Kenya better than Nigeria?
What sort of foolish question is that? Is that not progress? OK, tell us what you can boast of in Nigeria.

Na wa for you oo. How is building 1GW impossible?? Nigeria is currently transmitting almost 5GW and produces 10GW as at last count.

A GW is simply 1MW.

1000MW

Daily times Nigeria is a useless media outlet. No one should take them seriously. Here is a simply illustration of the conversation rate

This Op is damn funny. How much is 1 Gigawatt? Even if you didn't study Physics you should have NEPA staffs coming to drop bills. Be teachable. Someone was correcting you, yet you were adamant. Next time make sure you appraise the article you lift and paste here. Small conversion
1000 Watts= 1 KiloWatt
1000 KiloWatts= 1 Megawatt
1000 MegaWatts=1Gigawatt
1000 Gigawatts=1 Terawatt

Kenya has 2600MW for a population of 44million. Its planning to add 5000MW by 2017 and to have a total of 15,000MW by 2020, fthat is one deal from solar


Projects under development for wind power in Kenya..... this was befor another 400MW wind power plant was anounced

an 800MW coal power plant is under construction, and americans attending the GES summit have signed another deal for an 880MW LPG gas fired power plant.....

Also kenya is the largest producer of power from geothermal in Africa and 8th in the world with current drillings surveys estimating that there is a potential for 10,000MW from geothermal if all explored.

I guess the OP is one of those 'I saw it on the internet, so it must be true' types.

Here's a tip: before rushing to post a link, do a bit of research, cos even BBC and CNN make mistakes

If you post a link to dubious material, no way can you avoid the shyte that will be dumped on your head

meccuno:
solar is very expensive.......South Africa use more that 50% electricity generation on coal........and they are around 70 thousand mega watts

Solar is not really as expensive as many of you like to sound, the same SA is also exploring solar solutions. You do realize that most of what makes solar expensive is that at the onset it is basically imported, but once the local industries become substantially involved, the cost drops dramatically.

Taking up Solar is not just about satisfying our energy need, there are job benefits attached, community participation and independence, climate concerns, individual independence from national bills (this is my own personal fascination with it, i don't want any idiot bringing bills to my house on a monthly basis, claiming they are the government).

Life was given to us freely, but we turn around and we use our entire life to pay to stay alive!

While in Nigeria, having light is a luxury.

What a zoo
Re: As Nigeria Struggles With 4, 000 Mw , Kenya Moves To Build 1 Gw Of Electricity by Nobody: 9:16am On Jul 29, 2015
generaly kenyans have more power per population than Nigeria,
Kenya has 2500 mw for 44 million people ,
while Nigeria has 4650 MW for 173 million people,
Kenya uses mainly clean renewable sources like geothermal ,wind, hydro, and now solar
Nigeria uses mainly resource dependent sources like gas and fossil fuels with hydro being the only major renewable source.

dont be so quick to take up pride as you ridicule another country.
