If all goes well, officials said, Rwanda and the company could set up a production line of such reactors in the central African nation as the country turns to nuclear power to help meet growing energy needs

Much of the country’s electricity comes from hydropower and diesel plants, according to the Rwanda Energy Group, and only about 68 per cent of people have access to electricity.

According to the report, it’s one of the projects in the earlier stages of development, including in licensing and sourcing a commercial supply of fuel. Dual Fluid Energy is pursuing a nuclear fission based on “liquid fuel and lead coolant” that it claims could produce emission-free electricity, hydrogen and synthetic fuels.

“I’m also quite skeptical about the timeline: Operational by 2026 in a country that has zero experience with nuclear technology seems very optimistic!” he added.
