Tanzania Allocates Almost $10 Million for Geothermal Drilling to Boost Energy Diversification The Tanzania Geothermal Development Company (TGDC) plans to drill three wells at Ngozi and Kiejo-Mbaka in southwest Tanzania this fiscal year, each reaching about 1.5 km deep, TGDC Acting Managing Director Shakiru Kajugus told at the 50th Dar es Salaam International Trade Fair. With Ngozi expected to produce 70MW and Kiejo-Mbaka 60MW, Kajugus said TGDC is at the resource confirmation stage, supporting Tanzania's broader target of 130MW of geothermal power by 2030.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
