There are currently no nuclear power plants in Ghana, although there is one nuclear research reactor in Ghana as well as plans to build a power plant. The Ghana Atomic Energy Commission has been investigating the use of nuclear power and is a member of the International Nuclear Library Network.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://inln.iaea.org/libraries.htm )〕 The commission is working with the International Atomic Energy Agency to implement nuclear power in Ghana as part of a wider project, Sustainable Energy Development for Sub-Saharan Africa. Ghana also has a Graduate School of Nuclear and Allied Sciences which trains undergraduate and postgraduate students in the techniques of nuclear science application in such areas as agriculture, medicine, and research.〔Clark, Nancy L. "Electrical Power". ''(A Country Study: Ghana )'' (La Verle Berry, editor). Library of Congress Federal Research Division (November 1994).

The government of Ghana plans to commission the building of a nuclear power plant by 2018.〔 President John Agyekum Kufuor supported the future building of nuclear power plants, seeing it as part of a solution to the country's energy problems. He initiated a Nuclear Power Committee to study the issue.〔 In 2011, the director of the National Nuclear Research Institute, Benjamin Nyarko, also said he believed nuclear power could prevent future energy crises.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.unmultimedia.org/radio/english/detail/113747.html )〕 The ministry has created a section to co-ordinate activities on the nuclear power project.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.ghana.gov.gh/index.php/news/features/12929-ghana-considering-nuclear-power-option )〕 ==See also== *Ghana Nuclear Society *Ghana Atomic Energy Commission *Nuclear power by country 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nuclear energy in Ghana」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
