Yesterday's gone. Tomorrow hasn't yet come. We have only today. Let's begin.
Energy-Power & Green Environment 4 all communities in Uganda, Africa & Globally
The regional convening on PrEP is featured in the maiden UCN Newsletter! It was a great experience coordinating the meeting on behalf of WHO AFRO with #SSLN and UNAIDS with support from BMGF.

Today, we showcase Stuart Kasozi, who took a deep dive into SDG 7 with @CheveningFCDO. He was also able to access regional and international energy and power frameworks.
#CheveningAt40#ChooseChevening
This year, we're celebrating 40 years of @CheveningFCDO We'll have a week long celebration of this prestigious scholarship next month. We look forward to the participation of all Chevening alumni in Uganda. We will share more details in due course. #IamChevening@UKinUganda
@LordMayorDublin Closing clubs and bars at 2am diminishes the country's tax base.
Adults should be allowed to party responsibly and then the government maximizes tac collections.
@geofrey_muta@rkabushenga That's fine for small scale consumption. Several homes that are connected to the grid have the option of batteries and inverters for back up, just like you. I thought you wanted to discuss battery energy storage for homes, using alternative energy supplies other than the grid.
@mbed2001@rkabushenga A generator can be 100MW installed but only available to generate 50MW at a certain point, that's why we might get a deficit in supply and perhaps import, or load shed worst case scenario @MEMD_Uganda@NankabirwaRS
@mbed2001@rkabushenga We can't generate more than what we consume, generation is balanced with the load demand. But we have more installed capacity than our load demand. But some generators may not be able to generate to installed capacity due to maintenance and other operational issues.@NankabirwaRS
@AkatuhuriraNob3@rkabushenga The hydro power plants along the rivers mainly River Nile were built using donor money, we have to pay back these loans. About the unit costs going up regularly, they're other prevailing factors that are factored into determining the tariff @NankabirwaRS@MEMD_Uganda
@geofrey_muta@rkabushenga On the household level, they can be used, but again it will depend on energy source is used to charge these batteries. If it's charging them using the grid, it's not worth the investment. If it's other technologies charging the batteries, then households can embrace local hybrids
@geofrey_muta@rkabushenga We can look into battery storage on the grid, once as a country we start intensifying frequency sensitivity. Our hydro generators at the moment are giving us the required system inertia to handle system frequency. @MEMD_Uganda
