zesco

UAE-owned renewables company Masdar has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) and a joint development agreement with Zambia state-owned utility Zesco to develop 2GW of solar PV in the African country.

Enel Green Power (EGP), an arm of Italian power giant Enel, has started the construction of its first PV plant in Zambia, standing at 34MW capacity.

The government of Zambia has issued a Request for Qualification (RfQ) for up to 100MW of solar under the first round of the GET FiT Zambia programme.
