, QUESTION ONE – ARGUMENTATIVE ESSAY
“Zambia has in the recent past witnessed an increase in economic activities
which has led to an increased energy demand. This increased demand for
energy has overshot the hydroelectric power generating capacity. Consequently,
the national power utility company, the Zambia Electricity Supply Corporation
(ZESCO) instituted nationwide load shedding schedules that last up to 12 hours
daily. This development has potentially far reaching social and economic effects
on the lives and operations of poor urban residents and small scale business
enterprises (SMEs) that routinely depend on stable access to electricity.”
Adapted from: Umar, B.B., & Kunda-Wamuwi, C.F. (2019). Socio-Economic
effects of load shedding on poor urban households and small business
enterprises in Lusaka, Zambia. Energy and Environment Research, 9 (2), 20–9.
