Overview.
As part of efforts to diversify the national electricity sources, the government of Uganda licensed Green Impact Development Services (GIDS) to drill an exploratory well in the Buranga Hot Springs area. Pre-feasibility studies at this location have indicated subsurface water temperatures of to , which are suitable for electricity generation. GIDS plans to drill three deep wells and to generate at least 30 megawatts from each well.
Funding.
The cost of construction is budgeted at US$42 million.
