Demand for Electricity in Tanzania Fuelled by Industrial Growth

Rising demand from both local and export power markets is necessitating urgent additions to Tanzania's installed electricity capacity. The country is looking to the rehabilitation of the power industry and the exploration of both gas and coal for power generation to reduce the supply-demand gap.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.energyandpower.frost.com/), Strategic Analysis of the Tanzanian Electricity Industry, finds that the market earned revenues of $264 million in 2007 and estimates this to reach $440 million in 2013.

Tanzania: Electricity Shortage as Opportunity

It is more productive to invest in the energy sector in order to make money especially because Tanzania is rich in resources that are required to generate electricity. Meanwhile, the shortages of electricity would be overcome automatically as more investors generate electricity to make money.
