The state-owned Electricity Generation Company of Malawi (EGENCO) has called for expressions of interest for installation of a 10MW solar PV project at Nanjoka in Salima that can later be scaled to 20MW.
Arthur Peter Mutharika, President of the Republic of Malawi, helped lead a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the start of construction of the 60MW Salima Solar project within the country.
Project developers have signed a 20-year power purchase agreement (PPA) with Malawian national utility Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi Limited (ESCOM) for a 60MW(AC) solar plant.
