Members of parliament on the parliamentary committee investigating irregularities in the energy sector have discovered that Nalubale power plant is producing more power than kiira power plant yet there have been claims that the new dam was constructed to relieve pressure from the old dam.

A member of this committee engineer Gabriel Ajedra says that the excuse that the draught has caused the water levels in the lake to go down does not arise but it’s due to the fact that the dams were built parallel to each other and are being operated at the same time.

There have been claims from the energy sector that they cannot generate enough power from these dams due to water levels.

Ajedra says the option now is to close one of the dams to allow the water levels move up so that more power can be generated.
