Vice President Chiwenga visited a huge water power plant that Tajikistan built. Energy Minister July Moyo and government engineers joined him on the trip. The country makes almost all electricity from water power. Tajikistan sells extra power to nearby nations. The Rogun plant will make 3,780 megawatts when workers finish building it.
Chiwenga saw how Zimbabwe engineers help build the massive project. About 18,000 people work at the construction site each day. Only 1,400 workers come from other countries. Local people learn valuable skills that help them build future projects. The VP believes Zimbabwe can copy what Tajikistan achieved.
Zimbabwe has many rivers that could make electricity the same way. The country plans to add 2,690 megawatts from nine new power projects during the current year. Tajikistan leaders promised to help Zimbabwe develop water power capacity. Chiwenga thinks his country has the people and resources needed for success. Government teams studied the plant to bring ideas back home.
