“With such a focused group of industry shapers participating at the ‘Powering Africa: Tanzania’ meeting from the 29-31 January, we can’t help but be buoyed by the possible outcomes of the debate.” Simon Gosling, EnergyNet
As the World Bank agrees to support Tanzania with $60.2 million to further strengthen the country’s business environment, international investors flock to Tanzania in search of credible partners, a deeper understanding of the requirement of entering the market and an eagerness to do business.
According to the International Energy Agency, sub-Saharan Africa will require more than $300 billion in investment to achieve universal electricity access by 2030. The US government’s “Power Africa” initiative, which includes Tanzania as one of six priority countries for investment, will commit more than $7 billion over the next five years to support African countries in their goal to increase power generation.
The opportunities are therefore massive for Tanzania to transform its economy, create thousands of jobs and empower the youth of the nation to take the East Africa region profitably forward through 2030.
EnergyNet’s Powering Africa: Tanzania executive meeting, to be held from 29th-31st January in Dar Es Salaam, will explore the importance of international partnerships in more detail, bringing together leading international players including Symbion Power, Schneider Electric, Aldwych International as well as local stakeholders including the Ministry for Mines and Energy, TANESCO and EWURA to discuss the opportunities for investors in the country’s power sector.
