600 miriyoni vanhu muAfrica vanogara vasina magetsi, zvinomiririra chikamu chinosvika makumi mana nemasere kubva muzana chevanhu vose vemuAfrica. Kuwanda kwesimba rekupa simba muAfrica kuri kuramba kuchidzikiswa nemhedzisiro yedenda reNewcastle pneumonia uye dambudziko remagetsi pasi rose. Zvichakadaro, Africa ndiyo nyika yechipiri pasi rose ine vanhu vakawanda uye inokurumidza kukura, ichidarika chikamu chimwe muzvina chehuwandu hwevanhu pasi rose panosvika gore ra2050, uye zviri kuonekwa kuti Africa ichasangana nedambudziko guru rekusimudzira nekushandiswa kwemagetsi.

Gwaro richangoburwa neInternational Energy Agency, Africa Energy Outlook 2022, rakaburitswa muna Chikumi gore rino, rinoratidza kuti huwandu hwevanhu vasina magetsi muAfrica hwawedzera nemamiriyoni makumi maviri nemashanu kubva muna 2021, uye huwandu hwevanhu vasina magetsi muAfrica hwawedzera nezvikamu zvina kubva muzana kana zvichienzaniswa ne2019. mutoro wavanoisa kunyika dzemuAfrica.

Asi panguva imwecheteyo, Africa ine 60% yepasi rose simba remagetsi ezuva, pamwe nemamwe akawanda akawanda emhepo, geothermal, hydroelectric uye mamwe magetsi anovandudzwa, zvichiita kuti Africa ive nzvimbo yekupedzisira yepasi rose yekupisa simba renyika haisati yagadzirwa pamwero mukuru. Sekureva kweIRENA, panosvika gore ra2030, Africa yaigona kuzadzisa chinenge chikamu chimwe muzvina chesimba rayo rinodiwa kuburikidza nekushandisa zviwanikwa, zvakachena zvesimba rinodzokororwazve. Kubatsira Africa kugadzira magetsi egirinhi aya kuti abatsire vanhu vayo nderimwe remabasa emakambani ekuChina ari kupinda muAfrica nhasi, uye makambani ekuChina ari kuratidza kuti ari kuita basa rawo nekuita kwavo.

Chikamu chechipiri cheChina-inobatsira solar-powered traffic signal project muAbuja, guta guru reNigeria, yakaita mhemberero huru muAbuja musi waSeptember 13. Maererano nemishumo, rubatsiro rweChina kuAbuja solar energy traffic signal project yakakamurwa kuita zvikamu zviviri, chirongwa chakapedzwa 74 mharadzano dzemagetsi ezuva remagetsi ezuva, September 2015 mushure mekuendeswa kwekushanda kwakanaka. China neNigeria dzakasaina chibvumirano chekushandira pamwe chechikamu chechipiri chechirongwa ichi muna 2021 kuvaka masaini emagetsi ezuva pamharadzano makumi mapfumbamwe nesere dzasara munzvimbo huru kuti vaone mharadzano dzese munzvimbo huru isina kutarisirwa. Ikozvino China iri kuita zvakanaka pavimbiso yayo kuNigeria yekuenderera mberi nekuvheneka migwagwa yeguta guru Abuja nesimba rezuva.

Muna June gore rino, yekutanga photovoltaic power plant muCentral African Republic, iyo Sakai photovoltaic power plant, yakabatanidzwa kune grid, simba rekugadzira neChina Energy Construction Tianjin Electric Power Construction General Contractor, ine simba rakaiswa 15 MW, kupera kwayo kunogona kusangana ne30% yemagetsi ekudiwa kweCentral African capital Bangui, inosimudzira zvikuru nharaunda nehupfumi. Iyo pfupi nguva yekuvaka yePV simba rekudyara purojekiti yakasvibira uye ine hushamwari kwezvakatipoteredza, uye yakakura yakaiswa simba inogona kugadzirisa nekukurumidza dambudziko rekushomeka kwemagetsi emuno. Chirongwa ichi chakapawo mikana yebasa ingasvika 700 panguva yekuvaka, zvichibatsira vashandi veko kuti vagone hunyanzvi hwakasiyana-siyana.

Kunyange zvazvo Africa ine 60% yepasi rose simba rezuva, inongova ne1% yepasi rose photovoltaic magetsi ekugadzira magetsi, zvichiratidza kuti kuvandudzwa kwesimba rinoshandiswazve, kunyanya simba rezuva, muAfrica rinovimbisa zvikuru. Sangano reUnited Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) rakaburitsa “Global Status Report on Renewable Energy 2022” inoratidza kuti zvisinei nekukanganisa kwedenda reNewcastle pneumonia, Africa icharamba ichitengesa 7.4 miriyoni off-grid solar zvigadzirwa muna 2021, zvichiita kuti ive musika mukuru pasi rose. Pakati pavo, Eastern Africa ndiyo ine kutengeswa kwepamusoro neiyo 4 miriyoni dunhu; Kenya inosvika mamirioni manomwe dunhu rakatengeswa. iri panzvimbo yechipiri nezvikamu zve439,000 zvakatengeswa muCentral neSouth Africa zvakakura zvakanyanya, neZambia yakakwira 77 muzana, Rwanda yakakwira 30 muzana uye 9 muzana yekutengesa kweWest Africa seti 1 miriyoni, chikamu chidiki chegore rino, dunhu reAfrica rakaunza huwandu hwe1.6GW yegore rePV-4.

Zvinogona kuoneka kuti PV-inoenderana-inoenderana zvigadzirwa zvine musika wakakura muAfrica. Semuenzaniso, kambani yeChinese Huawei's Digital Power yakatanga huwandu hwakazara hweFusionSolar smart PV uye simba rekuchengetedza system mhinduro kumusika weSahara weAfrica paSolar Power Africa 2022. Mhinduro dzinosanganisira FusionSolar Smart PV Solution 6.0+, iyo inogonesa PV masisitimu kuti aenderane neakasiyana magidhi mamiriro, kunyanya munzvimbo dzisina simba grid. Zvichakadaro, iyo Residence Smart PV Solution uye Commerce & Industrial Smart PV Solution inopa yakazara yakazara yakachena simba ruzivo kudzimba nemabhizinesi, zvichiteerana, kusanganisira bhiri optimization, proactive chengetedzo, smart mashandiro uye kugadzirisa, uye smart rubatsiro kusimudzira ruzivo. Mhinduro idzi dzinobatsira zvakanyanya mukufambisa kutorwa kwakawanda kwesimba rinowanikwazve muAfrica yose.

Kune zvakare zvakasiyana-siyana zvekugara zvePV zvigadzirwa zvakagadzirwa nemaChinese, izvo zvakare zvakakurumbira pakati pevanhu vemuAfrica. MuKenya, bhasikoro rinoshandisa simba rezuva rinogona kushandiswa kutakura uye kutengesa zvinhu mumugwagwa riri kuwana mukurumbira womunzvimbomo; mabhegi ezuva uye maamburera ane simba rezuva ari kutengeswa zvakanaka mumusika weSouth Africa, uye zvigadzirwa izvi zvinogona kushandiswa pakuchaja uye kuvhenekesa pamwe chete nazvo, izvo zvakanakira zvakatipoteredza nemusika muAfrica.

Kuti Africa ishandise zviri nani magetsi anosanganisira simba rezuva, uye kusimudzira kugadzikana kwehupfumi, China kusvika parizvino yaita mazana emagetsi akachena uye mapurojekiti ekusimudzira girini mukati mehurongwa hweForum on China-Africa Cooperation, ichitsigira nyika dzemuAfrica kuti dzishandise zvakanaka simba rezuva, simba remvura, simba remhepo, biogas nemamwe magetsi akachena, uye kubatsira Africa kuti ifambire mberi nekusimudzira budiriro.
