Zimbabwe's Minister of Mines and Mining Development, Winston Chitando, said recently that the government is planning to use thermal coal to generate electricity, which has the potential to generate more than 2,400 megawatts of electricity
by 2023.
At the second-quarter Economic Business Forum, Chitando expressed optimism about the new plan, saying Zimbabwe would become an exporter
of electricity.
"Use the potential of mineral resources to extract thermal coal for power generation
.
Currently, Zimbabwe needs about 1,900 megawatts of electricity per day, and the addition of thermal coal will allow the country to generate 2,400 megawatts of electricity, and I can safely say that Zimbabwe will be a net exporter
of electricity by 2024.
”
Chitando further explained, "The potential of thermal coal, coupled with other ongoing projects, will achieve self-sufficiency
in the country's electricity needs.
”
The senior government official said government interventions would not only provide more electricity but also create more jobs
.
In terms of value added, the minister said that the government is currently working on specific mineral policies, including plans for platinum and precious metals refineries, lithium processing plants, diamond processing plants, etc
