National Energy Compact
The government of Tanzania aims to increase electricity connectivity to 75 percent by 2030 and clean cooking access to 80 percent by 2034. It also aims to increase the share of renewable energy in the generation-mix to 75 percent from the current 61.8 percent, which will require adding over 1,800 MW of generation capacity from solar, wind, geothermal, and hydro. Significant mobilization of public- and private-sector financing is targeted in order to create a favorable investment climate, strengthen local capacities through training, and establish robust data collection systems for informed energy-planning and decision-making
