Introduction
The economic outlook for Eastern Africa for 2011 and beyond is very positive, the Uganda’s growth estimated at more than 7.5% in the 2011 financial year.The opportunity for further growth looks encouraging, especially with the discovery of oil in this country and plans for the production of some 155 000 barrels of oil per day by 2015.
Uganda’s National Development Plan, the 5-year ‘battle plan’ for increasing economic growth and improving the lives of its citizens, emphasises infrastructure development as a major driver to the development of the country. One of the key drivers of this development plan, is increasing energy infrastructure.
