rvp2018: How can that tiny thing carry 1600MW of power. You will get daily DUMSOR. The problem with your power sector - you don't have power company maintaining your network.
Yes compared to kenya - you did well not have monopoly in power distribution
But you lack something like KETRACO -who job is to plan, design, construct, own, operate and maintain the nation's high voltage electricity transmission grid and regional power.
So you are going to be getting a lot of DUMSOR>
It is called Technology, it uses the latest power supply technology available to the distribution services of the world.
Unfortunately kenya is too poor to afford something like that.
The only country that gets daily dumsor is kenya, because electricity available is not enough in your country. And your country distribution network is not advanced enough. How was your 12 hours light out yesterday?
Your Ketraco is our GRIDCO. Your ketraco engineers were taught by GRIDCO engineers on how to manage a distribution network, including others from Uganda, Rwanda, Ethiopia,Tz and co.
rvp2018: Very tiny. I thought you were excited about something big. I see it 330KVA - but looks very tiny - with small land.
Kenya has 400KV substations 1) Suswa being biggest in kenya and possibly in the region outside South Africa - connecting to Ethiopia's grid - to receive 400MW 2) Isinya the 2nd biggest. Isinya
rvp2018: Why would consume so much power when a typical household just need it for 3 hours of lighting at night - and to power TV/fridge? Our priority is to get everyone to access power - and power reliability.
We don't have to power an AC like you do.
you are dumb
That is why your country is so dark.
A house needs power 24/7 and you need to supply as much as they can consume so you don't inconvenience them.
Just say kenyans are poor and can only afford to power one bulb in their shacks for 3 hours.
Since you are so ever ready to get rid of fossil fuels, when will kenyans be rich enough to use induction cookers ?
Getting everyone to access an unreliable power that is not enough for everyone in kenya is the way to go. But you guys need to invest get rich and invest in more generation.
Lagos state alone consumes 2000mw plus and gets what, it has 21 to 24 million people.
All the house in Kenya uses AC except for people like you who live in shacks and slum scrappers without windows as you would like to call those.
rvp2018: Nairobi consume roughly half of kenya power - that now around 1000mw.
Now forget about this MW - If you really want to know how much power is consumed - find out GWH.
And for Ghana - remove the 200MW plus for gold smelting - and 200MW by VALCO for aluminium smelting - that is already 400MW.
What actually get supplied to household - who use it to power their AC - something you don't need in Nairobi is about 70%.
You're spending maybe 10-15 units of power per day per household to just keep yourself sane (cold) - but Kenya we have nature to thank for that. I saw Africa Traveller sweating like a pig in the Ghana heat. Pass the poor guy a water satchet please
Vlain: Lol the most developed country in Africa. A standard for Africa. Africa’s best brain that turned nothing to something. A serious country ; lol i can go on and on
rvp2018: I suggest you get to work down south. Look like Kenya will overtake Ghana remittance wise this year. You're making too much noise - and not working.
World Bank>> Within the region, remittances to Kenya have so far stayed positive, though flows are likely to eventually decline in 2021. All major remittance-receiving countries will likely see a decline of remittances
good dreams
every Kenyan has a dream to one day overtake Ghana in something.
i hope it comes through for you.
Even in Covid 2020, your country couldn't overtake Ghana in FDI nor remittances and you think you can in 2021?
rvp2018: Yes I was intrigued why it doesn't look developed; like any developed country would look like; I am satisfied I have all the answers. COOKING DATA. Yemi Kale style.
Your African traveller thinks differently and likewise Miss Trudy and the other kenyans who are receiving reeducation.
Lets add everyone else that have observed both countries development.
Your country is on the level of Togo
Your country data cooking is the reason why extreme poverty has increased to 20 million people and unemployment has gotten worse.
rvp2018: Of course. we are fixing our problems. Not hiding them in data. In few years - we will have to blockade our borders - to stop West Africans from running to Kenya.
We have 2m housing deficit nationally (Not that people don't have house - but informal housing)
Of all places West Africans love to travel to,less developed places like kenya come at the bottom.
If you joke, we will start denying you dumb asses education.
Ghana builds more houses per year than your country.
rvp2018: You can relax. I am done with Ghana. I have analyzed all I wanted. Electricity, Water, Sewage, Economy, Minerals, Gold, Name it, Cocoa. Nothing is left. It like Nigeria now.
I have exposed your lies and propaganda. And that is that.
That mean both Ghana and Nigeria are far above your country in all things
sleep, you backward country will need centuries to catch up to Ghana and Nigeria in Electricity, water, sewage management, Economy, Mineral and general development.
as we have all established here, including your fellow citizens and mine who have travelled across both countries.
gallivant: Accra's $hit ends in the Atlantic ocean. I can show you videos if you like but instead I will encourage you to be more honest. Kenya of today is your future.
rvp2018: After Ngara 1,400 unit housing - comes another - Affordable Housing in Nairobi - 2,000 Units.
These will be 32 times 15 floors - that is already bigger than ACCRA and Abuja. And we are building 500,000 such units in the medium term. By the time we are done JOBURG will be dead - and Nairobi will be going toe to toe with CAIRO.
good luck to you, your country need more of those, so fools like you can finally leave the terrible slums
i hope it comes with an elevator, stable electricity, stable water supply, good sewage management and etc so your dirty country can look a bit developed,
rvp2018: More diarhoea from the resident slowpoke. You see at least Samrobo is into pictures. Now you fail in data. You fail in pictures. All you're doing is trolling.
Lazy tantrum from an insane illiterate
WAN*KER to the first degree
When they post data koraa, you and your fellow illiterate cannot read it properly.
rvp2018: Ethiopia like Kenya growth (and most of East Africa) is impressive - Non Mineral driven growth. That is the beauty about it - and that is why it very SUSTAINABLE.
Remove minerals from West Africa - and it another Central Africa.
You cannot claim to be developing - and yet there is barely anything on the ground reflecting.
Ethiopia - you can almost touch their growth with bare hands.
yet both countries remain highly impoverish and unemployment is killing you guys.
Funny enough, Economic growth in most west African countries is driven by the none extractive sector.
Your fellow African Traveller is showing you mansions that ordinarily people live in on this side of the continent.
That shows real development and progress in human life.
You guys in the East keep shooting development and yet nothing shows that you are developing.
Poverty keeps getting worse and large, your energy consumption have remained stagnant, cement consumption stagnant and etc
