Why Africa is Turning to Russia for Nuclear Energy—Tanzanian Expert Explains

African countries need reliable, high-capacity energy to develop industry, agriculture, and healthcare, political analyst Karim Nankuna told Sputnik Africa, commenting on Russia's Rosatom plans to supply floating NPP to Tanzania.

Key points from the speaker:

🟠Challenge: Climate change is disrupting hydro power, and fossil fuels are too costly.

🟠Solution: Nuclear energy provides the massive, stable output required to overcome these deficits.

🟠Blueprint: Egypt’s El Dabaa NPP proves that cooperating with Russia can secure energy independence and transform African nations into self-reliant industrial powers.

Several African countries are interested in cooperation with Russia's Rosatom, including construction of floating nuclear power plants, the Russian corporation's CEO Alexey Likhachev said after the third Russia-Africa Summit.
