China runs 1,142 coal fired power plants to produce electricity to support its economy.

India has 282, making it the country with the second highest number of power plants fired by coal.

Third in the order is the United States of America with 210 coal power plants and Fourth is Japan which runs 93 units that produce electricity by firing coal.

Meanwhile, Zambia is running one coal plant at Maamba Coilleries and another at Dangote Cement in Ndola. ( maybe one or two more units elsewhere)

The installed generation capacity in Zambia from different sources is 3356.6 MW broken down as;

- 83 % is hydro,
- ⁠9 % is coal,
- ⁠5 % heavy fuel
- ⁠3 % solar PV.

From a public policy perspective, we need to look at four things;

1. Is Zambia a signatory to any international agreement that prevents us from running more coal fired power plants ?

2. ⁠is there financing available ( private or public money) to set up these coal fired power plants ?

3. ⁠are coal fired power plants not part of the energy mix that Zambia is suppose to have in dealing with the power deficit?

4. Do we have enough coal in Zambia to meet the demand needed to fire coal plants that produce electricity?

The Ministry of Energy has projected national demands for electricity in megawatts (MW) as follows;

2020- demand 2,456MW
2025- demand 3,338MW
2030- demand 5,432MW
2040- demand 8,624MW
2050- demand 11,039MW

By the way, only 34% of the population in Zambia, have access to electricity

There are things that will happen in your life that bring you favour and seem to be luck or coincidence. That was God's work.

An amazing clip of Nelson Mandela’s visit to Lusaka on February 27, 1990 (16 days after being released from prison). President KK declared that day a public holiday. An amazing list of world leaders, including Yasser Arafat, received Mandela at the airport in Lusaka. #RIPKK

Creatives require time, space and the mood to create while financiers require structure, discipline and timebound deliverables. The two often clash but when they harmonise, magic is created.

If you exclude state owned enterprises, Zambians only control 8% of the formal economy. There are fundamental cultural changes we must make or else we'll have nothing to share but our poverty.
