Its a tricky question, and thats going to matter a lot for natural gas. No one mentioned nuclear yet in the institution. Yeah, id like to. If theres questions, i want to get to nuclear in a second, but, vivian, to what extent does the Development World ham strung by resource shortages, you mentioned renewables need to be Cross International boundaries. Is there an economic incentive to develop fuels, and do they have enough like africa or india . Well, it varies a lot depending on the country. I mean, one of the exciting developments in recent years has been the huge gas discoveries in africa, actually. Nigeria and angola are major producers, but mozambique came from nowhere to be a major producer changing the problem for africa in terms of changing to fossil fuels in the energy transition.

Is that going to start happening this year . Thats what i have been told by the project managers on that and this we should anticipate the construction soon. I look at it everyday and i think they have a shortterm intervention right now and kind of warming it up until the construction starts. Thats been a beneficiary of these improvements. Commissioner hillis . That park started construction. So, just a question on in kind contributions. We have a couple of in kind projects and we have a couple here. I always wonder if we can do them.

Too the way the fee works, the fees are due at construction. Which is generally the first major permit you get. Thats due for all projects except for those that have the deferral program. Thank you. Commissioners, sugaya . I think thats some of whats reflected in the table of your last page because you have in rin con monies coming in. So that must account for the second tower thats being constructed now and others. Trying to think the boundary between rin con and transit is it folsom . I believe it is folsom. Im not too sure. We are working on integrating the improvements in rin con. Some of the other projects and this captures the fees also. Yes. Okay. Commissioner borden . Just two small questions.

They have in kind improvements and they tend to directly relate to the project and they tend to be blocks away. So what percent, what percent of the funds that have been generated are in kind. Thats not a number off the top of may head. It could be no more than 20 percent because we have to dedicate 80 percent to those projects. Its been less.
