On the other hand, Uganda is providing 75,000 square meters of land, taking care of the shipping and the logistic taxes. All this is to implement a 4MW solar power project, which will improve the countries reliance on renewable resources and decrease the demand for oil.
Less than 10% of the countries hydropower is being exploited which means a massive potential for the generation of electricity. This potential is estimated to stand at 5,300 MW. The effect of which will reach other sectors such as agriculture and industry.
