Beschreibung
The project involves the construction of a 667 km transmission line, operated at 220kV with both circuit strung, between Iringa and Shinyanga.
Ziele
The project will link existing and future generating sources in the south and southwest of Tanzania to the load centers in the Mwanza and Arusha regions, in the north. The north-west part of Tanzania is experiencing a fast increase in electricity demand of around 10% annually due to the growth of mining activities. The existing transmission line has reached its technical limit to carry additional power and the planned connections of rural, urban and industrial customers will increase the network overload. The project might also anticipate future interconnections with Kenya in the north and Zambia in the south.
