Uganda expects to announce a winner in November from four groups of bidders competing for the proposed 60,000 barrel per day (bpd) Hoima oil refinery, according to comments made by Energy Minister Ruth Nankabirwa on October 17. The land has also been acquired and cleared to build the refinery and its associated pipelines, according to Ssekatawa. The Ugandan government’s plan for the new refinery should see it constructed at Kabaale, Buseruka Sub-County in Hoima District.

The two energy giants on October 17 hosted a joint session at the annual African Energy Week (AEW) in Cape Town titled ‘Powering Africa’s future through collaborative energy solutions,’ reports News24. The attendees were introduced to state-of-the-art technologies including Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), Floating Nuclear Power Plants (FNPPs), and large-scale NPPs. A floating reactor can also be fitted quite quickly,” Neethling said, adding that nuclear energy would also be a clean and sustainable energy solution. South Africa has 14 coal-fired power plants, and one NPP, Koeberg, operated by the state-run power utility Eskom. “There is a choice in South Africa to destroy the economy completely [with the ongoing energy crisis] or bring in nuclear energy to save South Africa,” Neethling was quoted by the news agency as saying.

The NewsA call by Ethiopia’s prime minister for his country to regain access to the Red Sea after a 30-year hiatus has sparked fears that the issue could destabilize the Horn of Africa.
