Industry News

 

The manufacturing sector in Tanzania remains optimistic as more effort will be put into ensuring minimal power interruption.

 

The statistics from Tanzania Electric Supply Limited (TANESCO) has proven the manufacturing sector to be the main user of total power generated at over 60%. Chairman of the Confederation of Tanzania Industries (CTI), Mr. Felix Mosha, emphasized,

 

“Since over half of total power output goes to manufacturing sector, any little interruption results in massive losses.”

 

Mr. Mosha highlighted that “there should be sustainable investment into the energy sector” as electricity generation and the manufacturing sector’s production have observed direct correlation. This is especially important as the manufacturing sector’s contribution to economic growth is expected to increase and will remain as a value added sector to the country’s GDP.

 

An overall increase in energy generation is expected in Tanzania in the next few years, facilitated by upcoming power projects and infrastructure developments.

 

Mr. Zelalam Gebrehiwot, Technical Assistant to the Executive Secretary at the Eastern Africa Power Pool Permanent Secretariat, will elaborate on East Africa’s power infrastructure masterplan at the 5th Africa CemenTrade Summit in Dar es Salaam on 26-27 February.
