    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to contribute to this Report and support its adoption. I also want to commend the Committee for the work that they have done. They visited the various sites and have given us a comprehensive Report, which also gives recommendations of improving this very important sector. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, we had an opportunity also to visit one of the geothermal power stations and saw the work that they do and the potential for energy that is there. We have a good promise from GDC that the geothermal energy and how it is exploited can lead this country to greater heights. The Report indicates that the geothermal installed capacity in this country places us at position number nine and there is a potential for us to be placed number three. I think that the Committee needs to take us to the next level, to really look at the issues that are stopping us from moving to number three, and try through the relevant Ministries to intervene and try to find ways that will actually ensure that we move to that number three position in the world, that they have indicated in this particular Report. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, the potential that was looked into was about 10,000 megawatts, but they say that there is potential for more in terms of geothermal. Of all the 23 sites, this Committee visited two sites. But they talked about other sites, including Paka, Silali The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposes only. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate"
