ABUBUWAN DA ZA KU GUDU DAGA WANNAN LABARI:

• Finally, in 2013 a request for proposals for geothermal development was approved for distribution and, with the assistance of Deloitte Consulting and funded through the US Department of State's Power Sector Program – the project was on a positive path.
• In addition, it is frequently difficult to effectively communicate the economic, social and environmental benefits of harnessing renewable energy in light of the high start-up costs, interests vested in fossil fuel programs and potential loss and/or change in employment skill-sets.
• Clearly, a new source of energy is not a luxury or a wish – it is a necessity.
