Russia is an important partner in Rwanda’s ambitious plan to use nuclear energy to power its future. Rwanda’s foreign minister, Olivier Nduhungirehe, stated during the recent Russia-Africa meeting that his country is committed to working with Russia to advance its nuclear energy sector, particularly through information sharing and training. Building a high-tech, sustainable energy system that can fuel Rwanda’s expansion and development over the ensuing decades is the aim.
Nduhungirehe stressed during his remarks at the meeting that Rwanda sees nuclear energy as a crucial part of its energy plan. Although Rwanda has made progress in solar and hydropower, nuclear offers a chance for dependable, large-scale power generation, which may be essential for the country’s long-term energy security. Rwanda intends to collaborate with international organisations and Russia’s Rosatom, a world leader in nuclear technology, to accomplish this, emphasising both infrastructure development and the development of indigenous talent.
“We hope that this project will continue for the benefit of Rwanda. Since it’s energy, we need energy, and nuclear energy is one of the energy sources that are important for our country,” Nduhungirehe explained.
One of the top priorities for the African country is to train the next generation of nuclear scientific experts. Rwanda aspires to a future in which highly qualified engineers, scientists, and managers drive advancements in nuclear technology, guaranteeing the industry’s safety, sustainability, and eventual contribution to Rwanda’s economic independence.
The foreign minister also highlighted what he sees as a unique aspect of Rwanda’s partnership with Russia: mutual respect. In his words, the collaboration between Rwanda and Russia is based on “concrete projects with results, but also with mutual respect.” Unlike some partnerships that come with political or ideological strings attached, Rwanda’s relationship with Russia is firmly grounded in a shared vision for progress. Russia provides support without imposing “moral values” or political pressure, which Nduhungirehe noted as a significant benefit.
As Rwanda looks for energy solutions to assist industrialisation and economic growth, the partnership represents a major advancement. Rwanda aims to set an example for sustainable energy development in Africa by utilising Russia’s technical know-how and dedication to a cordial collaboration.
