Industrial Segment Expected to Dominate the Market
- Tanzania's industrial sector witnessed an upsurge in recent years. The share of the industrial sector in the country's GDP was around 28.67% in 2020, which stands second in the sectoral contribution, after the service sector and agricultural sector.

- In August 2021, installations for the Julius Nyerere Hydropower Plant began in Tanzania through the joint venture of the Arab Contractors and the Egypt-based company Elsewedy Electric. The project consists of 9x235 MW turbines installation for a total capacity of 2,115 MW. The commissioning of the project is expected in 2022 or 2023. Installation work has come after completing relevant civil works carried out by Egyptian and Tanzanian engineers and technicians.
- In December 2021, the Tanzanian government entered a contract with Turkish firm Yapi Merkezi to construct a 368 km section of standard gauge railways in Tanzania. The USD1.9-billion project will connect Dar es Salaam and Morogoro city. The electrical testing began in 2021, and the project is expected to be operational by 2022.
- Such initiatives to expand the industrial sector will have an overwhelming impact on the share of the industrial sector of the Tanzanian diesel generator market.
