Tanzania starts construction of the Stiegler’s Gorge Power Generation Project in July, hoping to more than double its electricity production capacity in the next three years as part of its plans to become electricity sufficient and export the surplus.

The plant will produce 2,100MW. The dam on the Rufiji River in the Selous Game Reserve will be the largest in the country.
