Power Update

The government of Zanzibar has announced that the extended power blackout the island has generally been faced with since December last year, will come to an end once repair works are completed by the end of this week.

What's more, in an effort to avert a similar crisis in future, the government plans to have a new power cable with a capacity of 100MW to replace the existing older one by 2012. Meanwhile, back-up generators, which have already been purchased in Norway, are anticipated to be on the island within the next 4 to 5 weeks.
