Further, we describe some of the challenges with the effective deployment of mini-grid systems in Tanzania. Specifically, we highlight non-cost-reflective tariff for mini-grid projects and the commercial risk of mini-grid projects as significant challenges facing the commercial deployment of mini-grid systems in Tanzania.
Note: Operating projects without a specified commissioning year are not included. Today, Tanzania has 209 known mini-grids installed. With an aggregate capacity of 231,7MW, these proj-ects account for about 15 percent of the country’s total capacity of 1,461MW.17 Of these projects, al-most one-third are either solar or solar hybrid mini-grids.
The loan facility is accessible through the Tanzania Investment Bank with 15 years payback period. Additionally, the World Bank has also made available $75 million under the Renewable Energy Rural Electrification Program to support the development of mini-grid projects between 2015 and 2019 (Org et al. 2016 ).
Additionally, using an optimization technique, we assess the profitability of a mini-grid electrification project in Tanzania from a private investment perspective. We find that the approved standardized small power producers’ tariffs and subsidy scheme in Tanzania still do not allow mini-grid for rural electrification projects to be profitable.
Our analysis shows that despite a well-structured mini-grid tariff system and subsidies initiatives in Tanzania, operating privately-owned mini-grid systems in rural communities is not financially feasible. Further, we describe some of the challenges with the effective deployment of mini-grid systems in Tanzania.
After successfully developing projects in Kenya and Zambia, PowerGen began installing mini-grids in Tanzania in 2015. The organization will expand its portfolio further with a project financing deal it secured with CrossBoundary Energy Access (CBEA) and other financiers in July 2019.
