"content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would like to thank the Member. Actually, part of the problems we have in the country is because of relying on hydro-power. Due to climate change factors, hydro-power is no longer reliable. When we had prolonged droughts about 18 months ago, hydro-power was cut by half; from 700 megawatts to 350 megawatts, forcing us to import very expensive power. So, the Ministryâs policy is not to focus more on expansion of hydro-power. That is why we are moving massively to exploit the geothermal power generation because geothermal being under the earth, is immune to climate change and I think that is the way forward for this country. So, hon. Konchella, follow us on geothermal."
