    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the potential to harness alternative/renewable sources in energy in Kenya is huge. It is estimated to run into tens of thousands of megawatts. Yet, in this country, biting shortages and unstable supply remain the order of the day. When you hear, for example, the Assistant Minister giving his answer, you tend to get the impression of policy statements that lean towards exclusivity. They talk of geothermal, solar, wind and even oil plants, but all on their own! Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, my question to the Assistant Minister and to the Ministry of Energy is: Has this Government taken steps to establish the available potential of alternative/renewable sources of energy in Kenya? What steps have they taken, for example, to establish a master plan to a list cost-routing to establish how much potential is available and how much of it can be harnessed for the good of the people of this country?"
