Our History: The development of the electricity sector in
Zanzibar started in the beginning of the 20th century. In the year 1908,
coal-fired generators were first installed to provide Electricity in
Unguja Island. In 1954 the coal technology was abandoned and diesel
Generators introduced and used until 1980, when Unguja Island was
connected to the Tanzania National Grid, through a 132kV 45MW sub-marine
cable, in 2013 new Submarine was connected with capacity of 132kV 100MW
which is still in use to date.
Public electricity supply in Pemba Island was installed in 1958, with the Commissioning of the Tibirinzi power station. Over the years additional small generating units were installed by the Revolutionary Government of Zanzibar, in response to the growing demand. In 1985, the Government commissioned Wesha power station to replace Tibirinzi power station, with three diesel generators sets of 1.5MW each. To date, Pemba Island connected with national grid by Sub marine cable from Pangani via Majani Mapana Tanga to Ras Mkumbuu Pemba, with the capacity of 20MW, 33kV.
The State Fuel and Power Corporation (SFPC) was established in 1964
under the then Ministry of Water, Construction, Land and Environment by
Presidential Decree No. 12 of 1964. It was made responsible for managing
the power stations and providing services on both islands. Sector
reform under the Act No.3 of 2006 transferred regulatory issues from the
utility to the parent ministry and established the Zanzibar Electricity
Corporation (ZECO) thereby replacing ZSFPC to facilitate the
generation, transmission, transformation, distribution, supply and use
of electricity in the Islands of Zanzibar.
ZECO is 100% owned by the Government through the Ministry of Land,
Housing,Water and Energy, which assumes a supervisory role to the
Corporation. The Corporation is governed by the board of directors,
appointed by the Government who supervise the ZECO management and ensure
the implementation of the Government’s policies. ZECO is expected to
provide reliable and affordable electricity in Zanzibar, as an important
input in boosting economic growth and social development in the isles.
