The process synchronising the Hwange Expansion Project’s Unit 7 into the national grid will start on Monday.
In a statement issued on Saturday, 18 March, the Zimbabwe Power Company (ZPC), a subsidiary of ZESA Holdings, said:
<blockquote>
On Monday the 20th of March 2023, ZPC will begin the process of synchronising the Hwange Expansion Project’s Unit 7 into the national grid.
</blockquote>
The synchronisation of Hwange units 7 and 8 to the grid is expected to add a cumulative 600MW.
Electricity generation has been depressed for months resulting in massive unscheduled power cuts across the country.
On Friday, 17 March 2023, Kariba power station was generating 241MW, Hwange, 315MW, and Harare, 11MW, giving a total of 567MW.
ZESA is importing 100MW from Zambia’s ZESCO, 50MW from HCB Mozambique of Mozambique, and 100MW from Eskom of South Africa.
Zimbabwe needs between 1 500 MW and 1 700MW of electricity for load shedding to end.

<blockquote>
Hwange Units 7 and 8 are expected to add 300MW in November and another 300MW in the first quarter of 2023. Hwange extension supply shall assist to cover the prevailing deficit as well as reduce over-utilisation of Kariba Water.
</blockquote>

Energy Minister Says Hwange Expansion Project To "Cut" Zimbabwe's Power Deficit

ZESA Holdings deputy chair Ms Tsitsi Makova yesterday said the construction of the Hwange 7 and 8 Thermal Power Station is now 82 per cent complete. 
Once complete, it will add an additional 600MW generating capacity to the national grid.
Speaking at the ZESA 2021 risk management awards ceremony held at their national training centre running under the theme, “Powering the nation to 2030 through Risk Management”, she said: 
<blockquote>
Progress at Hwange 7 and 8 thermal power project is now 82 per cent complete, although delays in procurement of imported materials due to Covid-19 induced restrictions affected some of the targeted works.
The completion of the project will add an additional 600MW to the national grid which will go a long way in contributing to the national economic recovery.
</blockquote>
Ms Makova said desires to become self-sufficient and narrow the demand-supply gap, minimise power imports and conserve foreign currency.
Zimbabwe has been having power cuts in the past two years amid reports that the country’s main power generators, Hwange Thermal and Kariba Hydro Power Stations have not been producing to their maximum capacity due to faults.
Zimbabwe also imports power from neighbouring Mozambique and South Africa.
