Countrywide power rationing, which was shelved two months ago in the wake of stable rainfall, would resume towards the end of this month and intensify next month following failure by the rains to fill up Mtera dam, it has been learnt. This has forced the Tanzania Electric Supply Company (Tanesco) to shut down generation at Mtera since March, but the utility firm maximized output at the other hydro plants, which resulted in higher rate of water outflow compared to inflow.
