Huyo hajui chochote hakuna kitu wazungu wanaogopa kwenye mazingira yao kama gas za AC. Majira ya joto ni mafupi na wazungu wengi hawaitaji baridi wanafurahia joto unless kuwe na heat wave ambayo nayo huwa ni siku moja au mbili ndio utaona wanateseka.angalia ground heat pump system au duct heating system kupata idea! Hivi unafikiria majengo marefu hutumia AC kama yako ya nyumbani? Au makanisa na ma-halls? Hujawahi kuuliza yana-heat wakati wa baridi au yana-cool vp wakati wa joto? How much power ingepotea!

SAPP Southern Africa Power pool kuna deficit kubwa sana especially from South Africa na sisi tumeunga huko ndio tutapeleka umeme. Sisi hatufanyi miradi bila feasibility.CC Geza Ulole hiyo stima yenu mtauzia nani.., naona muEthiopia amenyakua soko la Kenya..,
Kenya inks cheap power deal with Ethiopia

Kenya on Tuesday officially inked the contract with Ethiopia for the purchase of cheap hydroelectric power even as Nairobi nears completing the transmission line to evacuate power from its northern neighbor.
The two countries have been hammering out details of the power purchase agreement (PPA) over the past year with its official signing this week bringing fresh hope over lower cost of electricity once the line is completed and energized.
Kenya is expected to purchase 200 megawatts (MW) from Ethiopia in the first phase of the multi-phased project before it is scaled up to 400MW in the next phase.
A senior source at Kenya Power yesterday told Nation that the PPA was signed by the company’s acting Chief Executive Geoffrey Muli and his Ethiopian counterpart from the Ethiopian Electric power (EEP) in Naivasha in the presence of senior officials from both countries.
President Uhuru Kenyatta was making a tour of Nakuru County where he commissioned five projects including the 172MW Olkaria 5 and 86 megawatts Olkaria 1 Additional Unit (AU) 6 geothermal power plants in Naivasha.
The other projects he commissioned during his visit includes the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) - Metre Gauge Rail (MGR) passenger rail link at the Mai-Mahiu Station that links the SGR and the MGR, the Naivasha Inland Container Depot (ICD) and the Suswa water project that will serve the Naivasha industrial park.
“The energy we are generating is not only to power this industrial park but it is also for powering other industries across our nation, our cities, our towns and our homes,” President Kenyatta said.
The Head of State was accompanied by Ethiopian Energy Minister Dr Eyob Tolina, Energy Cabinet Secretary Monica Juma, Transport CS James Macharia, and Turkish Industry Holdings President Mehmet Coşkun.
The African Development Bank (AfDB) funded Ethiopia-Kenya Electricity Highway Project involves the construction of an electricity highway between the two countries made up of about 1,068 kilometres of transmission line.
About 631km of transmission line is being built by the Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) that will allow for transmission of power of up to 2,000MW between Kenya and Ethiopia in either direction.
The state-owned company this week told Nation it would complete construction of the line “within the next few months”.
The project is part of the Eastern African Power Pool (EAPP) Master Plan that aims to interconnect the power grids of five countries in the region namely Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and Rwanda.
The deal is set to increase Kenya’s power imports, which cushion consumers from supply hitches in case of local generation challenges.
Kenya also imports electricity from Uganda, which has for decades served the Western region that is traditionally served by the small capacity hydros and co-generation stations such as the Muhoroni Gas Turbine (GT) located in the region.
Kenya imported 34.14 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity from Uganda in February – the highest amount imported from that country on record – up from imports of 30.34 million units in January amid low local power generation from geothermal and hydro dams.
On Tuesday evening, the Muhoroni GT power station, was hit by technical faults that tripped the electricity grid, temporarily affecting power supply to parts of Nyanza, Western and the Rift Valley.
You are wierdo who pretends to be in the USA. Huko hakuna houses na AC units bwana acha kushift gear angani na kugeuza geuza maneno eti now unasema cooling systems badala ya AC units kama ulivyosema hapo awali na kwamba nyumbani kwako unayoAnd I never said that these forms of cooling/heating aren’t used over here. What the weird dude said is Europeans and Americans DO NOT need Cooling systems at all, as it’s “always” cool here![]()

Hatuleti umeme huko mzee mahitaji yetu ni makubwa sana as we are now connecting major mines in Tz to the national grid plus additional mines that are coming up.Though Kenya might still get power from Tz.., the more the cheaper..,
Jamaa maisha yao ya maigizo snNinyi si mnawachimbia visima vya Geothermal hao Ethiopia?, Mbona mnanunua umeme toka kwao?, Sasa hivyo visima vyenu vya Geothermal mtavifukia au mtafanyia nini?

We are connected long ago search Tz Zambia interconnection status.Mtaifunga stima kwa container?
Do you even have a common grid with those countries, or is there a plan to create one?
Yani wanamchimbia mtu visima vya kuzalisha umeme alafu wanarudi kwa mtu huyo huyo kununua umeme, jamani mnaona usanii wa hawa WakunyaNinyi si mnawachimbia visima vya Geothermal hao Ethiopia?, Mbona mnanunua umeme toka kwao?, Sasa hivyo visima vyenu vya Geothermal mtavifukia au mtafanyia nini?

Embu tupia picha ya hiyo AC unit hapo nyumbani kwako Eastern United States tujiridhishe kidogoAnd I never said that these forms of cooling/heating aren’t used over here. What the weird dude said is Europeans and Americans DO NOT need Cooling systems at all, as it’s “always” cool here![]()



Shit holeSukuma gang watanuna![]()
Hawa jamaa wamechanganyikiwaYani wanamchimbia mtu visima vya kuzalisha umeme alafu wanarudi kwa mtu huyo huyo kununua umeme, jamani mnaona usanii wa hawa Wakunya![]()



Kwa hiyo unabisha kuwa organization yake haichangii kiasi kikubwa cha fedha? Haya hii ni screenshot kutoka jarida la reuters, sema tena hicho ni kijarida cha kuokoteza.Kuhusu hayo ya WHO kudhaminiwa na Bill Gate, huo ni uzushi tu, Bill Gate anachangia katika maeneo mengi tu hapa duniani, hata hapa Tanzania ametoa pesa nyingi Sana hasa kupambana na Malaria, Ukimwi na TB, mbona hatutawali au kutuamulia Mambo yetu, iweje akisaidia WHO unakua na mashaka?.
