Rwandan President Paul Kagame says his country will have operational nuclear energy by the early 2030s.
He announced this on Tuesday in a keynote address at the Nuclear Energy Innovation Summit for Africa (Neisa) in Kigali, an occasion he also used to receive the International Atomic Energy Agency's Phase I Integrated Nuclear Infrastructure Review for Rwanda from IAEA director-general Rafael Grossi. He said the assessment shows that Kigali is on track with the programme. This review feeds into Rwanda's Integrated Work Plan toward an SMR (Small Modular Reactor).
