GOVERNMENT has hailed the Harava Solar Project in Seke which is set to add 20 megawatts of electricity to the national grid.
A brainchild of Chief Seke, the Harava Solar Project which is expected to be completed in November is in partnership with the Government to provide power.
Speaking after touring the Harava solar installation project yesterday, Minister for Presidential Affairs and Monitoring the Implementation of Government Programmes Dr Joram Gumbo said the implementation of the Harava Solar Project by the Ministry of Energy and Power Development resonates with the National Development Strategy 1 which identifies the availability of reliable power supply as a basic requirement for all citizens.
“Under the National Development Strategy 1 period, the Government will therefore place priority on the development of reliable and reasonably priced power,” he said.
Harava Solar Park head of corporate affairs Mr Tatenda Savanhu said they have completed six megawatts which are waiting to be connected to the Dema Power Station.
“We are adding 20 megawatts to the national grid and currently we have completed six megawatts we are ready to go into the grid suffice to say we are just waiting for completion of the substation to be able to feed into the Dema Power Station,” he said.
