The southern African country’s power crisis is attributed to drought, old infrastructure, lack of investment, and debt. In an endeavour to address the problem, the government has tried several measures including investing in renewable energy and rehabilitating existing infrastructure, but there are still significant challenges to overcome. In its report for 2022 fourth quarter (Q4), ZPC stated that a total of 1,719GWh was produced, falling short of its quarterly goal of 2,490GWh by 30.96%. The power generation utility missed its 9,111GWh annual energy set-out target for 2022 by 7.29%. Zimbabwe relies on hydropower from Kariba South Power Station since its aged units at the Hwange Power Station are failing to generate to maximum capacity. *More Pindula News* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
