- Mozambican government signs agreement for power projects
- The agreement covers gas, transmission and generation projects
- Generation project will be the largest plant in Mozambique
The Mozambican government has signed Technical and Commercial agreements for three critical power projects. The projects include the Temane gas exploration project, the construction of the 450MW Temane Thermal Power station, which will be the largest in Mozambique upon completion, and the construction of the 650 kilometres Temane-Maputo high voltage (400KV) power line.
President Filipe Nyusi, while signing these agreements, stated that “The overall objective and the expected impact are to take electricity, for the first time, to over 10 million Mozambicans by 2024. Our ambitious challenge is to electrify those headquarters of administrative posts that are not yet electrified”.
President Nyusi’s administration targets 100% energy access for all Mozambicans by 2030 with the ‘Energy for All’ agenda.
