DOES TANZANIA HAVE EXPERIENCE WITH PPPS?

Tanzania has extensive experience with Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs), particularly in the energy sector through Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs). PPAs are a specific type of PPP where the government or a public utility agrees to purchase electricity from a privately operated power entity. These agreements significantly expanded Tanzania's energy infrastructure and capacity, showcasing decades of commitment to leveraging private investment for public utility development.

Furthermore, Tanzania's legal and regulatory framework and current PPP pipeline support a broad spectrum of PPPs, facilitating partnerships beyond the energy sector, such as transportation, healthcare, education, finance and agriculture
