High level participants include:

  • H.E. Honourable January Makamba, Minister of Energy, United Republic of Tanzania
  • H.E. Ambassador Manfredo Fanti, Head of the European Union Delegation to Tanzania & the EAC
  • H.E. Honourable Eng. Felchesmi J. Mramba, Permanent Secretary, United Republic of Tanzania

“Tanzania’s electricity sector hasn’t seen as much private sector participation compared to other markets in the region – particularly, in respect of renewable energy IPPs. #TECS23 will hopefully make a positive contribution towards changing this by allowing delegates to better appreciate key sector trends and government initiatives. For ATI, #TECS23 should illustrate the role we could play in enabling financing via our de-risking instruments that address political and short-term liquidity risks.” observes Obbie Banda, Underwriter, Acting RLSF Coordinator at African Trade Insurance Agency (ATI).
