nts in low-cost variable renewablesA key finding of this study is that Tanzania, unlike many of its peers in the region, has ample flexibi lity available in its power system. This is fortunate, because it means that even without investments in energy storage, the system can absorb a signifi-cant amount of low-cost variable renewable ene
