(NYT3) LUSAKA, Zambia -- July 28, 2007 -- AFRICA-BLACKOUTS -- Employees on Jacob Mwale's farm near Lusaka, Zambia, often must work by candlelight because the farm loses electricity at least twice a week. When that happens they also are forced to use charcoal to warm the newborn chicks, which must be kept at a constant 90 degrees after hatching on Friday, July 20, 2007. Power blackouts are hardly novel in sub-Saharan Africa. Even so, this year is different. Perhaps 25 of the 44 sub-Saharan nations face crippling electricity shortages, a power crisis that some experts call unprecedented. The causes are manifold: strong economic growth in some places, economic collapse in others, war, poor planning, population booms, high oil prices and drought have combined to leave both industry and residents short of power when many need it most.
