It is located in the third gorge below Victoria Falls and consists of three power stations with a total capacity of 108 megawatts (145,000 hp): Station A, commissioned in 1936, has an installed capacity of 8 megawatts (11,000 hp): 2 x 1 megawatt (1,300 hp) and 2 x 3 megawatts (4,000 hp) machines.
The Ngonye Falls Power Station, is a planned hydroelectric power station across the Zambezi River in Zambia. The power station will have maximum generating capacity of 180 megawatts (240,000 hp) when completely developed. The energy will be sold to ZESCO under a long-term power purchase agreement. [1] It is named after the nearby Ngonye Falls.
A fifth hydroelectric power plant is under construction at Itezhi-Tezhi Dam (120MW) along with a coal powered power station at Maamba (300MW) as of 2015. There are also a number of smaller hydroelectric stations, and eight towns not connected to the national power transmission grid are served by diesel generators.
The energy produced would be sold to ZETDC, under a 25-year power purchase plan. [10] [11] Umguza Solar Power Station: Matabeleland North Province: 200 [12] 2022 Expected AF Power Private Limited [12] Victoria Falls Solar Power Station
The Zambezi River Authority (ZRA) is a corporation jointly and equally owned by the governments of Zambia and Zimbabwe. It is governed by a four-person council consisting of the Ministers of Energy and Finance of each country. [1] Its primary function is to operate and maintain the Kariba Dam on the Zambezi River. [2]
