100MW Chisamba Solar Project Nears Completion
Construction of the 100MW Chisamba Solar PV Plant is 71% complete and is expected to be commissioned by May 2025.

Kariba North Bank Power Extension Corporation CEO, Boyd Kanchela, stated that the $100 million project will help address the power deficit. The plant is 70% debt-financed and 30% equity-funded.
Currently, 750 workers are employed in the construction phase, with the number expected to double once operational.
EFFA Conference Convener, Hope Chanda, expressed satisfaction with the progress, highlighting a goal to add 500MW to the national grid this year.

Meanwhile, Green-Co’s Head of New Ventures, Chikoma Kazunga, confirmed that the company is prepared to purchase power from the plant for at least 10 years once it becomes operational.

This is what MMD and PF should have done long long time ago in their tenure. This time there would have been no loadshedding.
Surprisingly even ba MMD and PF are condemning UPND for loadshedding but they know themselves did not go green energy investment.
Stop blaming UPND which is correcting the situation for ever. Soon Maamba Energy Project Phase 2 will also come on board plus the other Solar Fields coming.
