Ghana's pursuit of nuclear energy to meet its growing electricity demand and become a regional energy exporter has attracted the interest of global nuclear powers, setting the stage for a geopolitical battleground in the African energy sector.
Global superpowers are circling as Ghana prepares to build its first nuclear power plant . The small nation is poised for a major uptick in electricity demand over the next few years, and has grand plans to become a net exporter of energy to other nations within the Africa n continent. Ghana plans for nuclear energy to play a significant role in achieving those targets.
