KARIBA has increased its generation capacity to 401 megawatts (MW) from around 200MW in previous weeks.

As at December 12, the country is generating a total of 847MW.

The Harare and Bulawayo power stations are yet to start generating power.

The statistics show that Munyati is producing 17MW, Kariba 401MW, and Hwange 429MW; giving a total of 847M
