ROSATOM recently participated in the Power-Gen Africa, where it exhibited and presented its latest nuclear and renewable technologies.
Delivering a presentation during the Nuclear Forum, ROSATOM regional Vice-President of Sub-Saharan Africa, Viktor Polikarpov highlighted the companyâs solutions for the African continent.
Within the framework of Power-Gen Africa 2017 âRusatom International Networkâ? signed a Memorandum of Understanding with African Young Generation in Nuclear (AYGN). The MoU lays the foundation for cooperation in the enhancement of education and public acceptance of nuclear energy across the African continent.
ROSATOM also presented its latest mini-hydro solutions during the conference. In the coming time the Company plans to sign its first contract on a mini-hydro power plant project up to 2 MW in South Africa. Simple and cost-efficient, mini-hydro power plants (HPP) can be used in areas that are not connected to the main power grid for financial or technical reasons. They can serve either as independent power sources or as an alternative to cost – inefficient and non-eco-friendly fossil fuel generators.
