2.4MW wind farm nears completion
Tanzania's first ever wind farm to reach financial close and start construction is nearing completion following a US$1.2m loan from the Renewable Energy Performance Platform (REPP).
Once operational, the 2.4MW wind farm will provide much-needed energy security to customers of a rapidly expanding private rural grid network developed and operated by project developer Rift Valley Energy group.
The farm's three turbines have recently arrived at the project site in Mwenga in the Mufindi District of Tanzania's Iringa region, and installation and testing is expected to be completed by early May.
