Russia and Guinea have signed an agreement to explore the feasibility of a floating nuclear power plant<\/strong>. Both nations, through the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom, agreed to an exhaustive study of the possibility of implementing this energy project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Floating nuclear power for Russia and Guinea<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The growing interest in nuclear power in sub-Saharan Africa underscores the importance of this agreement. Many states in the region are actively evaluating the potential of nuclear power to meet their growing energy demands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last month, it was reported that multiple international suppliers were competing to build Ghana’s first nuclear plant. Some companies from France, the United States, Russia, South Korea and China are involved in this competition, using a public-private partnership model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In March, Burkina Faso signed an agreement with Rosatom for the construction of a nuclear power plant. This is one more step in Russia’s chain of nuclear initiatives in the continent, seeking to consolidate its presence in the region.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other nuclear energy opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Kenya is also in the process of selecting sites for its first commercial nuclear reactors. The country’s nuclear power authority identified two possible locations in the past 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Egypt has started construction of the fourth unit of the Dabaa Nuclear Power Plant<\/a><\/strong>. With the direct participation of the presidents of Russia and Egypt, this project was officially launched in January, marking a milestone in nuclear collaboration between the two nations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other Russian initiatives in Africa include Nigeria and Tanzania. Although so far no project has moved beyond the agreement stage, these countries are on Rosatom’s radar for future nuclear collaborations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
