Malawi - Kholombidzo Hydro Electric Power Plant Feasibility Study Malawi - Etude de faisabilité de la centrale hydroélectrique de Kholombidzo In Malawi, changes in power demand scenarios within the past 10 years, coupled with
tremendous environmental degradation has drastically negatively affected the operation and
efficiency of the existing power generating plants, which are hydro-based. This, coupled with
problems faced in the realization of the power development options outlined in the 1998
Power Development Master Plan study, has forced the Government of Malawi to critically reexamine
its power development options in the short and medium term. In order to critically
address the prevailing and projected power requirements for the country, while at the same
time ensuring that the system’s reliability is improved, the Government has formulated a
number of interventions, one of which is the undertaking of a feasibility study for the
development of the Kholombidzo Hydropower plant. The intervention will produce a feasibility study for the future development of a
power generation project to contribute to the expansion of electricity generating capacity in
Malawi, which would ultimately contribute to addressing electricity shortages and enabling
the delivery of reliable energy and electricity access expansion in Malawi. Since the study will deal with a project that will
deliver energy into the national grid, the ultimate beneficiary will be the entire country which
will experience improved energy supply resulting from the development based on the
outcomes of the study.
