Following the repeal of the 1963 Electricity Act, the Electricity Supply Commission of Malawi was corporatized in July 1998 and the utility was renamed Electricity Supply Corporation of Malawi . This led the utility to enforce revenue collection, increase tariff levels and its separation from the ministry.
Malawi’s energy supply is dominated by biomass (firewood, charcoal, agricultural and industrial wastes) accounting for 84% of the total primary energy supply. The total installed electricity capacity is currently at 351 MW with around 98% Hydro on the shire river.

The project will also contribute to a cleaner energy future for Malawi, reducing reliance on costly diesel generators, cutting carbon emissions by ~10,000 tonnes annually, and unlocking the full uptake of at least 100 MW of variable renewable energy, such as solar and wind power, into the grid.
We look forward to continuing our partnership with the Government of Malawi to support the country’s ambition to achieve universal electricity access by 2030 as we pursue the goals of Mission 300: connecting 300 million Africans to electricity by 2030 at unprecedented scale and speed.”
