Most of the electricity in Egypt comes from the Aswan High Dam, which 
was constructed in the 1960s, and crosses the Nile in the south of the 
country. But only about 2 gigawatts come from it, which is only about 
300 watts per Egyptian. More is needed. 
  
About a million square kilometres of the country consists of 
sun-drenched desert, ideal for solar power. 
  
But, oh no! They've decided to go nuclear. 
  
They're crazy.
