PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari on September 24, 2019 in New York during the 74th Session of the United Nations General Assembly, expressed Nigeria’s hope to have at least 30 per cent of its total electricity supply from renewable sources by 2030. Also, Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, re-echoed the hope recently at the inauguration of a 1.12MW Solar Hybrid Project at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University, Bauchi.
The hope, inappropriately called a plan, is aimed at providing solution to Nigeria’s epileptic power supply, and at the same time reduce Nigeria’s carbon footprint.
A Leftist Perspective on China’s Environmental Destruction
China’s Engine of Environmental Collapse

As “part of China,” we Hong Kongers have seen how China’s economic growth has contributed to the degradation of its environment. To be fair, Hong Kong’s economic takeoff had already harmed its environment before China took over the city. We witnessed all our beautiful beaches becoming polluted. The relocation of Hong Kong’s factories to Guandong since the 1990s, instead of alleviating pollution, has, ironically, further exacerbated the city’s environmental destruction. For decades thick clouds of smog have hung over us as Guangdong became a great export-processing zone. The sky only became cleaner, again ironically, when the pandemic swept across the nation, shutting down many factories.

The Duna and Huambos wind farms will have an installed capacity of 36.8 MW and will inject an estimated annual energy production of 165,000 MWh into the National Interconnected Electric System over a period of 20 years.
Both parks are located in Chota, province of Cajamarca, more than 2,400 meters above sea level, and are the first to be installed and operated in the Peruvian Sierra; a geographically strategic location due to its exceptional weather conditions for the generation of this type of energy, as it enjoys around 5,000 net hours of wind per year.
The start-up of Duna and Huambos is part of the Peruvian State s ambitious plan to cover 60% of the country s energy demand using clean energy by 2025, as well as its objective of electrifying areas that are difficult to access, as established with the auctions promoted by the Renewable Energy Law and its Regulations, in which Grenergy was awarded these projects in 2016.
