Who are we?

Our Mission and Vision

Mission:

To develop and implement long lasting solutions to power supply challenges faced by the IEUG Members.

Vision:

To provide IEUG Members access to adequate, secure, reliable, predictable and uninterrupted electricity at competitive tariffs.

Our Objectives

Updated 2025:

To procure a steady supply of power from generators within the Southern African Power Pool (SAPP). Including but not limited to State Owned Utilities (SOU) and Independent Power Producers (IPPs) on behalf of our members.
To promote the efficient usage of energy through auditing and energy management.
To support the development of power generation in Zimbabwe.
To support the strengthening and upgrading off the transmission facilities which connects an IEUG member to the ZETDC transmission network.

Progress to date

Updated 2025:

IEUG has secured a reliable and steady supply of 40MW base
load capacity from a local IPP. Plans are underway to procure additional base
load capacity from the local and regional suppliers.

Plans are well advanced to develop solar energy generation to deliver 1000 MW in 2027. In addition – private investors are building 5 coal fired plants to generate over 2000 MW to supply the needs of major mining and beneficiation efforts. To augment these efforts, a natural gas fired power station in Mozambique is planned to feed up to 500 MW into the regional grid and support is planned for 4 new hydro electric plants on the lower Zambezi in Mozambique. Taken together these projects will ensure self sufficient power supplies to support major economic growth.
