The Government of Tanzania, through the Tanzania Electric Supply Company Limited (TANESCO), is proposing to build the Kakono Hydropower Plant along the Kagera River in the northern country. The valuation of the economic, environmental, and social externalities resulting from this project require best-in-class climate data, which is being provided by the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S).<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

This C3S data also provides vital insights into what climate-related risks this Hydropower Project will face, and what it will mean for its financial performance over its life cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read the SAVi report <\/strong>A Sustainable Asset Valuation of the Kakono Hydropower Plant in Tanzania<\/em><\/strong>: Assessing Climate Risks and Externalities of Hydropower and Energy Generation Alternatives.<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our assessment involved an integrated cost-benefit analysis of the project; a valuation of co-benefits, avoided costs, and societal costs; a demonstration of how climate risks will affect the project\u2019s financial performance, derived from C3S data; and how sustainable assets perform in the energy sector in Tanzania, relative to diesel generators or other traditional technologies. It also considers the hydropower project against the costs and benefits of a hypothetical energy generation scenario that ensures the provision of the same amount of electricity annually and entails electricity generated by solar photovoltaic systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
