Can the Earth’s core be used to power Africa?

Africa Daily - Un podcast de BBC World Service

The Olkaria geothermal power station in Kenya opened four decades ago. It’s located in Hell’s Gate National Park and was originally conceived as a research project. But today it’s a viable commercial business that generates electricity using steam rising from deep in the ground. And it’s a renewable source that could bring energy to millions. In the next edition of Africa Daily, Alan Kasujja looks at why this is such a good natural source of energy and how it could be great news for the continent. Host: Alan Kasujja (@ Kasujja on Twitter) Guest: Michael Kaloki, a reporter in Nairobi.
