Tanzania has set a target of expanding electricity generation capacity to 8,000 megawatts by 2030 as it looks to strengthen energy security and support industrial growth.
Deputy Minister for Energy Salome Makamba said the government is seeking investors with financial, technological and technical capacity to participate in projects spanning hydropower, solar, wind and geothermal generation.
The government is also courting investment in transmission, distribution and energy storage. PowerChina has expressed interest in working with Tanzania across several parts of the electricity value chain.
