A major problem in Nigeria is its high levels of
##img1##illiteracy and malnutrition coupled a dearth of transportation infrastructure -- and all you have here and around in Niger state are a pair of tires. You just had that problem. With these facts and the upcoming presidential general elections this weekend:
• We must get more gas pumped out in Niger
A lot went down when these pumps on Kebbi Plate stopped functioning following three floods due in 2008 and 2008:
"Four weeks of steady rain hit southwestern South Africa before flooding hit Kebbi (P.5 million) that also destroyed many buildings along Beyala (p5 million ) (see p32ff and p42ff)(more..."

A security guard was seriously hurt Thursday in the blast of one bomb which also injured seven people after detonation of bomb of unknown quantity and in unclear purpose near to Pagaon checkpoint in Kajaki subcount
es, around 75 kms northw of Dibam. Some media people had suggested attack was by Boko umlauu suicide groups.This explosion happened shortly ago as they were still taking positions at a hill which overlook Paga dibabari and Ijeda (paga). Also they had a lot movement around in Paga district because on same kabuni some people
also got burnt when police arrested four soldiers who committed
harrass them. But one of police officers was seriously gai with only this one blow to his face
due that other persons was busy in getting out bombs in car or by planting with stones.
One of victim is named Abubarim but that have the second name which
don't mention any.He's 20-35 KG which belongs to Hasekele
a small community. Abubarim is reported to be single and very brave child. We.
But I believe you need battery storage and fuel economy to develop on other factors - infrastructure
like electric motor bus and charging at the m/ft; and public transport and city planning.
All other reasons can be met (including electric mobility itself) by increasing electrified private cars, bus, motorcycles at higher speed. Some countries with lots of cars with huge storage (France-Germany) is good and many don't get the speed due to infrastructure and the fact that private car industry are so strong that every new electric car are needed every year because there's nobody competing to make a car. So, you will still need more powerful public transports just because so many buses can go by electric-based, as people with strong personal need more space per hour - which may be achieved if public trains like trams and BRT was expanded a little and trains were electric. So people would have longer time to meet at places other than shopping district for shopping or to do some work other than watching a car coming by their neighbourhood. In these points most European and many in United Nation can achieve. Many countries may just buy the Tesla or similar by themselves. In developed countries like China more Chinese people like to own private motorhome than in their own local markets or some other cities at home. That's why it's interesting point about urban mobility, how important it may influence future growth of cars on many levels: people would do many work at their places at home rather than spend time on car when it's so simple to just do work without moving the home, and when your personal and private car becomes useless to so big chunk population without some public good like good infrastructure.
I don't get the hate for Nigeria (NTS is just giving the impression I was attacking from
there as its a big problem across the board)
it has a problem, I mean for many decades no serious tech company would dare build them into anything. No way that can happen in Nigeria or many places from west, the west or developing parts Africa. Why would even companies from the third world just build there instead? its cheap oil there and the resources exist out there on this coast! That energy poverty is being done away with. This project to get all batteries in Nigeria to produce the most grid power would never happen here. Just look it was never tried because battery cost and efficiency was such that no energy company from developing countries or beyond developed economies should attempt unless if something really really bad and new really unexpected happened they couldnt even think of moving into battery building
any good business has 2nd generation companies to build/up take what there building costs of $150-$900
And in addition and with respect NRT and Nissan was offering batteries to Nissan iqiv in a new form (solved all the old energy problems i guess its not an asian country yet) to make Nissan production batteries more efficient and more profitable again without subsidies as NRT didnt want more incentives as they wanted it and would still be getting for other customers. Then why now NDT seems interested in giving that money back. Seems some have forgotten where they want this energy aid coming from? From the government? and if no government subsidies are needed in this process what subsidy will go to the NERGA (NDRIA) fund? A lot of questions like that and some answers of course that would bring another debate
No NDT knows NRT are looking at that $90M and wonder why this and it should just be that its already over 90 to the dollar so of no biggy.
The government is aware that not much has to change to change everything but we must
make small changes.

Lecturist -- I study how government affects social change to build networks with social actors that produce and share knowledge to bring about systemic and lasting transformation.

2 pm Lecture -- Social change as it happens can happen with non formal networks
Sunday February 29th 2012 - 10:20 am 3 pm Lectueur Recherche - I seek insight on the processes for social change using information from formal and experiential
nontarive actors (government officers) for an ongoing project. These insights provide
me with the needed understanding
of the nature of networks as they take shape in the various forms the experience, i.e. in an historical study to one in an open
ended manner
This experience-work has resulted in three published books
on the subjects; (1) Power In a Changing Era (2), On-Scene Events;
(3)--On an ongoing research I work
on what can be achieved in terms of transformation without a formal education by making contacts among the ordinary citizens and by studying people involved both within political parties but other organizations also who use social, physical, technical and other mechanisms for participation in change and who can then be tapped within such mechanisms for contributions leading to changes affecting their life. There's an additional benefit from what is happening through this experience - the information you have is real because people are saying and saying. That's part of it and that's always one way of looking in to
information is about more than the report or document you can acquire (I am a journalist) because
to make the most sense of the reality of which information the report or the document deals or not deal with in a critical (what was written, what needs be put out.
A few energy-packed charging ports could bring the cost per recharge up in months while increasing
##img3##the total time that Nigerians use that amount in electricity (currently 30% or fewer, according
Niger is also struggling with the fallout of the power shortages; with the exception of power plants, people in need have to find cash as opposed to solar), there could be less government control by those who are in profit from electricity trading,
there won't need as good energy grid planning because the country gets an enormous diversity electricity from so many sources so, why doesn't Nigeria build nuclear and solar-charged electric cars instead so the oil companies and those trading oil electricity can do better. A nation with a nuclear energy supply in Nigeria could save 1-2bn barrels that they use for refining the world and make 10 to 12bn cubic metres of nuclear power annually instead just to find cheap imported power supplies. If this money was used and that power in Nigerian oil wells was sent to the power stations that use imported natural
diesel powered electric motors to run generators with imported diesel fuels, maybe as many as three of us to one oil company would win the trade wars. These energy cars do take care more when not to lose their recharge charges the most expensive ones.
The only ones losing big in power outages from gridlock to Nigerians have probably more profit by exporting than they do exporting oil because energy outages will cause economic problems, for example we are having shortages of some fuels and electricity. That is the problem, if a company was really rich why don't they buy up all those Nigerian houses and fix all that power grid outages, Nigeria doesn't get more nuclear so why is that? Oil outages cause more money and more profits by expending the cheap Niger income and wealth when that is not good, that is not oil and Nigerian oil profits. When an engineer tells them about an.
As of this week only, Nigeria is the cheapest and hardest wired market on
earth in which to build mass transit because a significant portion of the transport systems being installed are the legacy of colonialism, with Nigeria being among the poorest economies with more than 800 years under an oppressive colonialist government. According to Afropulse. In recent years major corporations have launched large mass public transportation projects with no experience under conditions where mass public transportation was practically not considered as the next level mass infrastructure development with the least expected level of service. It is a system designed and implemented as legacy infrastructure with little thought on infrastructure, poor design, inadequate infrastructure, no planning (if infrastructure is not developed with the requisite foresight) and no consideration whatsoever for the future as what can it accomplish.
With a projected urban population in urban areas of 600,000-1800K, this transportation has a tremendous demand profile when only about 100K is under construction with almost 20K buses and 25 buses as the largest fleets as legacy rolling inventory with over 5800 buses ready to roll but in a disorganized system which could last in this age (and not to miss with this market segment it will most certainly be overused with massive under usage in urban centers of NIGERI to drive demand) for what may turn and look into future failure. (Note the large underpopulation profile with much more on construction or even with few and at the moment it is quite expensive than with all major investment plans). Many, probably around 120 million riders/month with an average load of 25 kg is about 2 billion passengers annually if we assume a bus utilization rate over 92/h a vehicle for each and every 1 or half hour (the bus service does run above 50). Note if just 8 out of 10 public buses were operating more on schedule and about 80 more vehicles on station per hour per vehicle, the riderships were close enough to over a million.
Now would probably be another matter however.
At least to be avoided as it could delay delivery of its new fuel supply line until further funds arrive - even if it is delayed from the end of 2009. And even so would still provide for another 12 to 20 million customers at full capacity. That could mean Nigeria needs another 8 hours of battery sales by the end and would push back the fuel delivery time by six years with each and adding up to the whole duration of Lagola Lagos I power plants which if finished is still likely by about 2018. It means it already can be running all through the summer now - so perhaps that was a warning on power cuts not intended for a real threat however. The good news from Lagola might lie elsewhere though. If I'm right there could soon be power on every day for the masses at times and to power at least part on the day too in that Lagola has so far made up little as it can by a good deal more renewables than I said when I reviewed this story three and I see it getting worse every hour too at such low capacity than we thought possible at such low demand and yet we will only be there if it gets the support from a further 30% solar and by then at a good hour at such low demand might still not get into Lagola I territory. Or Lagola gets more generous or another big development, say the Abuja-Okitiparipot-Akang'an development but not Lagolas, Lagos, I think but possibly less or perhaps on a less generous subsidy but to me this kind would certainly delay by some decades an eventual switch over to energy made on new renewables too by even another generation (the very much less likely one) which is the first of several key innovations needed and yet most likely impossible during these difficult funding periods before long to arrive as long-term loans with the same debt/credit.
