Energy: Vital for sustaining life on earthBasic foundation which determines stability
of national economic development. Needed to improve quality of life.
Exponential increase in world energy demand. World population will hit 8billion by 2020. (Nigeria generates about 3,500MW)
Conventional energy resources are limited on earth. Exploitation and optimization without jeopardizing life supporting systems

• Located in Oriade LGA, Osun State, Nigeria
• Population is estimated at about 25,000 (Power consumption: about 1MW)
• Olumirin waterfalls was discovered in 1140AD
• The waterfall flows from the third level (of a seven-level mountain standing at about 1000 metres above sea level)

Basis for Future Prospects
April 11, 2023
18
• Green Energy Sources: Emphasis in global energy conferences (Rio-1992; Kyoto-1997)
• Perpetual nature and spatial distribution of sources i.e. hydro & solar
• Hydrokinetic turbines can be used to boost power generation in already existing dams e.g; kainji, shiroro.
• Financial involvement of private and international organizations (EAP, UN etc)
• Certainty of reduced cost of renewable energy sources as against an increase in fossil fuel cost

Challenges facing the Erin-Ijesha Hydro Power Scheme
April 11, 2023
19
• High initial startup costs: A common factor to all emerging energy technologies
• Integration with existing power grid• Bureaucratic obstacles • Accessibility of the site for construction• Slippery effect of water flow over rocks poses a
challenge in the safety of workers during construction.
• Harvesting of water from the 3rd level- use of dynamite or water collector.
