TANESCO stands for Tanzania Electric Supply Company Limited
It is a public utility company owned by the government of Tanzania and is responsible for the generation, transmission, and distribution of electricity in Tanzania.
TANESCO was established in 1964 and has since grown to become the largest electricity company in Tanzania, serving over 5 million customers across the country. The company operates various power plants, including hydroelectric, thermal, and natural gas plants, and has a transmission network that spans over 11,000 km.
TANESCO’s mission is to provide reliable, affordable, and sustainable electricity services to its customers in Tanzania. The company is committed to promoting economic growth and development in the country by providing access to electricity to households, businesses, and industries.
Despite its efforts to provide electricity to all Tanzanians, TANESCO faces several challenges such as inadequate generation capacity, transmission losses, and non-technical losses, which include illegal connections and non-payment of bills by customers. To address these challenges, TANESCO is implementing various strategies, including expanding its generation capacity through new power projects, upgrading its transmission and distribution networks, and improving its revenue collection system.
Overall, TANESCO plays a vital role in Tanzania’s development by providing electricity services to its citizens and supporting economic growth and development in the country.
