AJIRA TANZANIA 2019 / NAFASI ZA KAZI 2019
Background:
Tanzania Electric Supply Company Limited (TANESCO) is a parastatal
organization under the Ministry of Energy. The Company generates,
transmits, distributes and sells electricity to Tanzania Mainland and
sells bulk power to the Zanzibar Electricity Corporation (ZECO) which in
turn sells it to the public in islands_ Unguja and Pemba. TANESCO owns
most of the electricity Generating, Transmitting and Distributing
facilities in Tanzania Mainland.
The German colonialists established the first public electricity supply in Tanzania (which was then called Tanganyika) in 1908 at Dar es Salaam. It served the railway workshops and a part of the town where the colonialists were mostly staying. When the Tanganyika territory was mandated to Great Britain in 1920, a Government Electricity Department was formed to take over and operate the public supplies left by the Germans.

TANESCO commenced operations in 1933 by operating a diesel power station at Kange in the outskirt of Tanga; by 1936 the company had constructed a dam 90m long across the Pangani River and had commissioned two generators totaling 5MW. Concurrently with this, over 400km of supply lines were erected. In 1947, 1952 and 1959 three more sets were installed, bringing the total capacity up to 17.5Mw, its present value.
