PROJECT SUMMARY
Project
Overview
The project involves the construction of a high voltage alternating
current (HVAC) 400 kV transmission line (T-line) with a total length of
507.5 km, of which about 414.4 km are located in Tanzania and 93.1 km
in Kenya. In Tanzania, the project includes the construction of a 400 kV
substation in Arusha and the extension of the existing Singida
substation. In Kenya, the project does not involve any works related to
substations. Indeed, the substation outgoing bay in Isinya is part of the
existing Nairobi Reinforcement project which is currently under
construction.
The proposed interconnection line, to be connected to the Ethiopia-
Kenya transmission system through the Isinya – Suswa 400 kV line, is
part of the Eastern Africa Electricity Highway, with a transfer capacity
of 2000 MW. As such, it will be the major link for power transfer
between the Eastern Africa Power Pool and countries in the North such
Sudan and Egypt. Completion of the line is expected in early 2017.
Needs
Assessment
The project will allow the two countries to exchange power as well as
import energy from the interconnected countries. The project fulfills the
objectives of the NEPAD in terms of regional integration and promotion
of infrastructure development through regional co-operation in key
productive sectors such as energy.
Project
Outcomes
The project will contribute to: (i) improved power supply in both
countries and in the East African region in general and; (ii) reduced
operation costs of energy production. The project will help both
countries to replace some of the high cost thermal energy production
with cheaper hydropower, hence reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG)
emissions.
Bank’s added
value
The Bank has been playing a leading role in financing the
implementation of infrastructure projects in the region including
national transmission projects and regional power interconnections.
Indeed, the Bank, being a lead financer and coordinator, managed to
mobilize funds from other development partners such as JICA, AFD and
the WB to finance major capital intensive interconnection projects in the
like of the Ethiopia-Kenya Electricity Highway Project and the
Backbone Transmission project in Tanzania. The project is also aligned
with the climate change mitigation and adaptation strategy of the Bank,
as it presents the potential to replace part of the fossil-fuelled thermal
generation with hydropower.
Institutional
development
And knowledge
building
The project has a capacity-building component which includes training
for technical staff of the utilities on operation and maintenance of the
400kV system. It will also provide training to commercial staff of both
utilities to reinforce their management of commercial transactions. In
addition it will include a training programme for regulatory issues raised
in the context of power trade which will target experts of the regulatory
authorities in both countries.

REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS OF MANAGEMENT TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
REGARDING ON PROPOSED LOANS TO THE REPUBLIC OF KENYA AND THE UNITED
REPUBLIC OF TANZANIA FOR KENYA-TANZANIA POWER INTERCONNECTION PROJECT
Management submits the following Report and Recommendations on proposed ADF loans of UA 75.29
million and UA 27.50 million to the United Republic of Tanzania and the Republic of Kenya respectively for
the Kenya – Tanzania Power Interconnection Project.
1 STRATEGIC THRUST AND RATIONALE
1.1 Project Linkages with Country Strategy and Objectives
1.1.1 The proposed project is in line with one of the two pillars of the Bank’s Country Strategy Paper (CSP)
in Kenya for the period (2014-2018) which focuses on enhancing physical infrastructure to unleash inclusive
growth. The project is also aligned with the country’s Vision 2030 which confirms that the expansion of
electricity infrastructure is a top priority. Furthermore, the project fits within the Investment Prospectus (2013-
2016) and Power to transform Kenya 5000+ MW by 2016, with the strategic aim to provide affordable
electricity to quickly transform the economy. The initiative to add a generation capacity of around 5000 MW
by 2016 is expected to transform the Kenyan economy through support to numerous economic activities such
as mining, production of iron, large scale irrigation for food security, operation of petroleum pipelines,
petrochemical production including fertilizer, electrification of rail lines. Therefore, increased and reliable
power supply will be critical the desired growth in Kenya.
1.1.2 In Tanzania, the Bank’s CSP (2011-2015) seeks to support the country towards greater
competitiveness and more inclusive growth under two reinforcing pillars, one of which being infrastructure
development. The CSP is aligned with the Vision 2025, the medium-term national growth and poverty
reduction strategy (MKUKUTA II and MKUZA II) as well as the Five Year Development Plan I-FYDP I-
(2011/12–2015/16) which emphasizes the importance of reliable and adequate power supply as a key driver
for socioeconomic transformation. Tanzania recently revised its Vision 2025 under the banner of Big-Results-
Now (BRN) in which the Energy Lab prioritized seven transmission line projects, including the Zambia-
Tanzania and Kenya – Tanzania interconnector.
1.1.3 The project is also consistent with the Bank’s regional integration strategy paper (RISP) for East Africa
(2011-2015) whose main pillars are articulated around regional infrastructure and capacity building. The
proposed project is included in the East Africa Power Master Plan (EAPMP) and will therefore contribute to
make Kenya and Tanzania achieve some of the regional integration objectives of the East African
Community1 in the power sector.
1.1.4 Africa’s economic and social transformation requires major investments in infrastructure as well as
upgrading and modernization of existing infrastructure, which are recognized as a top priority by the African
Union (AU) and the New Partnership for Africa’s Development (NEPAD). Through the AU and NEPAD,
African Heads of State and Government approved the Programme for Infrastructure Development in Africa
(PIDA) in Addis Ababa, in January 2012. PIDA is a global partnership to transform Africa through modern
infrastructure. It defines priority infrastructure investments required to integrate and interconnect Africa so
that Africa starts to function as a single competitive market for goods and services linked to African markets
and to the global economy. PIDA envisages investments of US$68 billion by 2020, out of which around 60%
1 Both countries are members of the EAC.
2
(US$40.3 billion) would be spent in the energy sector. Persistent power deficits are among the major
challenges to Africa’s sustained development. The energy sub-sector of PIDA has a focus on the development
of major hydroelectric projects and the construction of transmission lines to connect the continent’s power
pools and enable inter-regional energy trade and cooperation. The Kenya-Tanzania Power Interconnector
Project therefore contributes to the attainment of the objectives of PIDA.
1.1.5 This project is critical in completing the power transmission links from Ethiopia all the way to Zambia
linking the Eastern African Power Pool (EAPP) to the Southern Africa Power Pool (SAPP), thus facilitating
power trade between Eastern and Southern Africa and helping to address the critical power deficit in these
regions through smoother flow of power trade from deficit to surplus areas. The proposed Kenya-Tanzania
power interconnection is a like transformational as it will facilitate linking countries, businesses, communities
and unlocking the potential for job creation and inclusive growth in both countries.
Rationale for Bank Involvement
1.1.6 The rationale for the Bank’s involvement is fourfold: (i) the project will complement the NBI-
NELSAP regional interconnection project2, and the Ethiopia-Kenya Electricity Highway project, both under
implementation; (ii) the project will enable Tanzania to replace thermal based emergency power plants with
hydro based imports, which is in line with the Bank’s Energy sector policy (2012) aimed at encouraging the
transition to green growth path in the delivery of affordable and reliable energy supply; (iii) the project is also
aligned with the Bank’s Ten-year Strategy (2013-2022) that calls for accelerated regional integration and
support to infrastructure projects that help unlock private sector participation. Accordingly, this
interconnection project is expected to encourage the private sector investing in generation of electricity by
facilitating power transfer through the interconnector; (iv) finally, the project aligns with the pillars of the
regional integration strategy papers (RISPs) for Eastern Africa which focus on regional infrastructure and
capacity building. The project will therefore contribute to the achievement of the two overarching objectives
of the TYS, namely, inclusive growth and transitioning to green growth.
1.1.7 The project is also justified by the priority given by the NEPAD to energy as a key driver for economic
growth. The programme strives to increase energy accessibility through development of regional energy
infrastructure both on generation and grid connectivity. Indeed, regional integration is considered essential
for meeting African’s economic and development goals. As a major tool to drive regional integration, Energy
is considered to play an important role in reducing the cost of doing business and energy infrastructure
development is recognised as a priority and strategic focus area that requires special attention. The strategic
objective to be pursued is to effectively address constraints related to the improvement of energy infrastructure
in the region in order to foster physical regional energy connectivity and integration as well as enhance
competitiveness. The region recognizes that removal of supply-side constraints related to energy is an
essential pillar for improved market access and enhanced productive capacity.
1.1.8 Therefore, the Kenya-Tanzania Interconnection Project plays an important role in promoting regional
integration through power trade. The project feasibility study was completed in June 2012 and affirmed the
feasibility of the project as the least cost option, which adopts technology that is well proven and field-tested.
The project allows the two countries to exchange power and also import from the interconnected countries.

Donor Coordination
1.1.9 In Kenya, the Bank collaborates with other development partners (DP) through the Development
Partners Group (DPG), the Harmonization, Alignment and Coordination Group (HAC), and various sector
thematic working groups. The Ministry of Energy (MoE) in Kenya has established an Energy Sector Working
Group (ESWG) which is currently chaired by the AFD. The most active development partners in the energy
sector are; African Development Bank (AfDB,), World Bank (WB), European Investment Bank (EIB),
Agence Française de Développement (AFD), Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), and
Germany’s Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau (KfW).
1.1.10 In Tanzania, the Ministry of Finance (MoF) is responsible for coordinating donor financing activities
within the energy sector. The Bank collaborates with other donors through the Joint Energy Sector Working
Group (JESWG) composed of multilateral (AfDB, the European Union -EU and the WB) and bilateral
(Canada, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Japan, Norway, Switzerland and the United Kingdom)
funding institutions. This group is currently chaired by the AfDB.
1.1.11 The Bank played a major role in organizing a donor coordination meeting for the financing of the
Kenya –Tanzania – Zambia interconnection project. The interconnection between Kenya – Tanzania will be
co-financed with JICA. Such cooperation is based on Japan’s strong commitment to realize the Action Plan
of the Fifth Tokyo International Conference on African Development (TICAD V) held in Yokohama, Japan,
in June 2013. The feasibility study for Tanzania - Zambia interconnection is almost completed and the project
will be financed by the WB and AFD.
2. PROJECT DESCRIPTION
2.1 Project Objectives
2.2.1 The ultimate development objective of the project is to improve the supply, reliability and affordability
of electricity in the Eastern Africa region through cross-border exchanges of cheap and cleaner surplus power
from neighboring countries. This project, through promotion of power trade at the regional level will
contribute to Eastern Africa’s socioeconomic transformation. Indeed, the project will help to improve the
supply of electricity in Tanzania in the short to medium term with imports from Ethiopia.
2.2.2 The project involves the construction of approximately 507.5 km of transmission line between Kenya
and Tanzania (about 93.1 km in Kenya and 414.4 km will be in Tanzania), with a transfer capacity of up to
2,000 MW in either direction, and associated substations in Arusha and Singida (Tanzania). There is no work
pertaining to substations in Kenya as the Isinya substation is under construction under the Nairobi Ring
Reinforcement project financed by the WB. The project also includes a capacity building component to
strengthen the implementing agencies. 2.2.3 An intergovernmental memorandum of understanding was signed in September 2003 between the
Governments of the Republic of Zambia, the Republic of Kenya and the United Republic of Tanzania on the
development of Zambia-Tanzania-Kenya (ZTK) Interconnector. Recognizing that the project is part of the
least-cost development plan, the three countries agreed jointly to develop the interconnection project. It was
expected that the planning, construction, operation and the procurement of the investment shall be inferred in
a manner that it will stabilize tariffs in the short to medium term time frames and shall lower tariffs in the
long term among the three countries. While the Kenya – Tanzania Interconnection component will be financed
by AfDB and JICA, the WB and AFD are expected to finance the Zambia – Tanzania Interconnection. The
project has also been identified as a top priority project by Tanzania in the Big Results Now initiative and will
4
help to achieve the objectives set by the Government of Kenya (GoK) in the Power to Transform Kenya
+5000 MW initiative. The project components are summarized hereunder:

Total Project Cost 199.86
2.2 Technical Solution Adopted and Alternative Considered
The optional alternatives of not interconnecting the two countries resulting in an independent national
generation and also expanding the national transmission system were rejected. Independent generation and
transmission development would deny both countries the opportunity of benefiting from the least cost option
of integrating the two power systems.
The solution considered is the construction of a 400 kV HVAC transmission line with a capacity of 2,000
MW along a route starting at Isinya substation in Kenya, passing through Namanga, crossing the border
straight to Arusha (Tanzania) and ending at Singida substation (Tanzania).
2.3 Project Type
The proposed intervention is a standalone investment project co-financed with JICA, under the framework of
the Accelerated Co-Financing Facility for Africa (ACFA) dated February 2012. JICA will finance part of the
works pertaining to the construction of the T-line and substations in Tanzania only while the Bank’s funds
will be used to finance project components in both countries.
2.4 Project Cost and Financing Arrangements
2.4.1 The total project cost, including contingencies of 10% (physical contingency of 5% and price
contingency of 5%), but excluding customs taxes and duties, is estimated at UA 199.86 million
(approximately equivalent to USD 309.26 million), split between Kenya and Tanzania as UA 32.60 million
(approximately equivalent to USD 50.45 million) and UA 167.26 million (approximately equivalent to USD
258.82 million) respectively.

Project’s target area and population
The transmission line starts at Isinya (Kenya), where the originating substation is under construction. The
Isinya substation is located 11 km to the south of the village of the same name. The line crosses the border
near Namanga and travels through several main roads thus making access easy. The topography of the line is
relatively flat.
7
2.5.2 The people along the transmission line’s route earn their livelihoods mainly from crop farming. The
direct beneficiaries of the project are households, businesses, and industries in communities located in both
countries. The line is expected to benefit countries in North, East, and Southern Africa through
interconnections between the EAPP and the SAPP hence facilitating power trade in the two sub-regions.
2.5.3 The high voltage transmission line requires the installation of ground (shield) wire to protect the line
from lightning strikes. This ground wire can also be used to install optical fibers (optical ground wire-OPGW).
Hence, in addition to energy supply, the project will provide the local populations of both countries with
access to high-speed ICT connectivity. This will be achieved through the OPGW line linked to the
transmission line, which will provide spare capacity for use by local communities.
2.5.4 The project includes a rural electrification programme which consists in providing electricity access
to about 21 villages (16 in Tanzania and 5 in Kenya) located within 20 km from the T-line and which are not
currently connected to the grid. The project will entail the connection of the targeted households to the grid
as well as the installation of pre-paid meters. This will enable a population of around 198,000 people (128,000
in Tanzania and 70,000 in Kenya) to have access to electricity and benefit from improved education and health
services. Among the villages to be electrified in Tanzania included rural area around Babati Katesh, Giting,
Endesh, Mgori and Ngimu. In Kenya, most of the villages along the line electrified with limited number of
customers. Under the project financing the existing distribution transformers shall be exploited to the
maximum through the extension of the low voltage network to reach around people located in the vicinity of
these transformers and also with installation of new distribution transformers and low voltage lines.
2.6 Participatory Approach
2.6.1 In Kenya, KETRACO had disclosed the environmental and social impact assessment (ESIA) for the
Isinya – Namanga section in accordance with the Environmental Management and Co-ordination Act in
August 2013 prior to licensing. In Tanzania, the ESIA summary and the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP)
Entitlement Matrix were written in Swahili to ensure larger diffusion and awareness among the local
population. The Venerable People Plan (VPP) written in English will be largely disclosed on the TANESCO’s
website and library but also at the district, regional and national level. TANESCO agreed to disclose the
reports until completion of the project. The disclosure of the ESIA report will be brought to the attention of
the public through announcements on the local daily newspapers in English and Swahili by TANESCO, and
through stakeholder consultations.
2.6.2 The public and stake holders in Kenya and Tanzania were consulted the potential impacts of the project
during the preparation of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), Resettlement Action Plan
(RAP), and Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP). Stakeholder consultations were conducted
with, affected communities, national and international NGOs, civil society and relevant government ministries
2.7 Bank Group Experience and Lessons Reflected in Project Design
2.7.1 The Bank has been very active in the energy sector in Kenya and Tanzania. In Kenya, the Bank’s
energy portfolio through public sector financing is over UA 300 million which includes Nairobi-Mombasa,
(UA 50 Million) and Transmission systems improvement project (UA 46.7) etc.. In Tanzania, the Bank’s
current energy sector portfolio includes the Electricity V project (UA 28.7 million, approved in 2007) and the
Backbone Iringa – Shinyanga transmission line project for an amount of UA 45.36 million (approved in 2011).
There is no backlog in project completion report (PCR) pertaining to power projects in the two countries.
Some projects show slow disbursement due to poor performance of contractors. The Bank continues dialogue
8
with the Government to improve the performance of energy projects and to avoid delay in implementation of
future projects.
2.7.2 Important lessons can be drawn from the Bank’s past interventions in Kenya and Tanzania. These
mainly relate to: (i) project readiness and quality at entry; (ii) project start-up and implementation delays due
to ineffective institutional arrangements; (iii) delay in fulfilling conditions to first disbursement (vi) delay in
implementing the RAP due to non-availability of counterpart funds and (vii) poor performance of contractors
. Those lessons have been taken into account in the design of the proposed project notably by: (i) ensuring
that it is supported by appropriate feasibility, ESIA and RAP studies; (ii) setting up a joint project coordination
unit (JPCU) to minimize any implementation delays and ensure a close collaboration between utilities; (iii)
ensuring the counterpart funds are budgeted before construction starts and; (iv) providing capacity building
trainings in particular project management and (v) conduct dialogue with the Government and Strengthen
the qualification criteria in selection of contractors
2.8 Key performance indicators
The following indicators have been discussed with the implementing agencies and shall be applied to measure
the impact of the project. The target figures and dates for each indicator have been confirmed by TANESCO
and KETRACO. The proposed indicators are: increased annual per capita electricity consumption (kWh);
decreased in each country’s electricity tariff for domestic and industrial consumers; power trade (GWh);
avoided operating costs (Maintenance and fuel) in both countries (MW); length of the T-line; number of
elephants tagged; number of jobs created (permanent/temporary/women); number of HIV/AIDS and gender
awareness campaigns conducted; number of high voltage substations; number of villages/people located along
the T-line getting access to electricity; number of implementation and supervision reports; number of advisory
reports and, number of people trained (out of which number of women).
3. PROJECT FEASIBILITY
3.1 Financial and Economic Performance
3.1.1 The Kenya – Tanzania Interconnection Project plays an important role in promoting regional
integration through power trade. The feasibility study confirmed that the Kenya - Tanzania Power
Interconnection project is the least cost option, which adopts technology that is well proven and field-tested.
3.1.2 It was assumed that, after being interconnected, both countries would aim at being self-sufficient and
thus would not modify the generation expansion plan in isolated case. This approach is conservative. Indeed,
optimizing the combined generation expansion plan of the two countries would bring additional benefits, but
it would require a tight coordinated planning. The generation plans were built on the assumption of limited
indigenous Tanzanian gas availability. The results of the simulations undertaken to predict energy flows show
that in the first period (from 2019 to 2026), Tanzania mainly imports power from Kenya while during a second
phase (from 2028 to 2038), the exchanges vary in amplitude and come primarily from Tanzania. After 2039,
there is almost no exchange.
3.1.3 The benefits of the Kenya-Tanzania Interconnection will be determined by the difference between, on
one hand, the savings in generation costs brought to the importing country, and; on the other hand, the
additional generation cost incurred in the exporting country. The savings thus calculated represent the
economic gain in generation costs brought by the interconnection. Power plants with lower variable costs in
one country would increase their output and replace those with higher costs.
9
3.1.4 The financial and economic assessment of the project is undertaken over an operating period of twenty
years starting in 2019. The investment is carried out over five years (2015 to 2019). The financial assessment
of the proposed project results in financial internal rate of return (FIRR) and financial net present value
(FNPV) of 22.03% and US$ 310.96 million respectively, showing that the project is financially viable.
3.1.5 In the economic analysis, in addition to the savings in generation, another benefit of the
interconnection is taken into account, namely the benefit that will accrue from a reduced reserve capacity.
The interconnection between the two power systems provides the possibility for both countries to share a
certain quantity of the reserve margin and allows each one to reduce the reserve capacity it needs and import
the energy when required. The economic assessment of the project results in an economic rate of return
(EIRR) and economic net present value (ENPV) of 25.21% and US$ 305.70 million.
3.1.6 The following table sums up the main financial and economic indicators of the project. The complete
analysis and assumptions are detailed in the Technical Annex B.7.
Table 3.1: Main Financial and Economic Indicators PARAMETERS VALUES
FIRR 22.03%
FNPV (@10%) US$ 310.96 million
EIRR 25.21%
ENPV (@12%) US$ 305.70 million
3.1.7 The financial and economic rates of return of the project have been tested against the possible risk
parameters during the construction and operation phases. The identified key risks include investment costs
overrun, an increase in operating costs and a reduction in revenues. The results of the sensitivity analysis
show that the financial and economic results are robust under identified adverse conditions. They also reveal
that the metrics of the project are more sensitive to a change in revenues and capital costs than to a variation
in operating costs. The details of the sensitivity analysis are shown in the Technical Annex B.7.
3.2 Environmental and Social Impact
Environment
3.2.1 The Project has been classified as Category I in accordance with the Bank’s environmental and social
assessment procedures (ESAP). The project comprises the construction of a total of 507.6 km of 400 kV
HVAC transmission line (93.1 km of the line is in Kenya and 414.5 km in Tanzania) with a designed transfer
capacity of 2,000 MW. The associated substation works include: the extension of the existing Singida
(Tanzania) substation to include 400 kV transformers, and the construction of a new 400kV substation in
Arusha (Tanzania). In addition, the project is expected to affect 1,618 households (299 in Kenya and 1319 in
Tanzania). The Summaries of the ESIA and RAP have been posted on the Bank website on August 15th 2014.
3.2.2 The negative environmental impacts are the permanent loss of vegetation in the right of way (ROW)
and the permanent loss of small portions of land required for the construction of towers. The transmission line
crosses protected areas in Tanzania specifically some Game controlled areas and Wildlife Management Area
(WMA’s). These include three migration corridors: the Amboseli, Kilimanjaro-Lake Natron corridor, the
Manyara Ranch – Lake Natron corridor and the Tarangire-Manyara (Kwakuchinja) corridor. Other impacts,
such as dust emissions, noise, soil erosion, degradation of water quality, soil contamination by poor waste
management or accidental spill of hydrocarbons, may occur during construction, maintenance and
decommissioning works but will be very limited and of temporary nature. The negative social impacts are the
10
permanent loss of arable land due to the presence of access roads and tower bases, and the restriction of plant
species without the potential to grow beyond 5 m at maturity in the ROW. In addition, a significant impact
will be the relocation of houses and some public or private infrastructure such as schools, mosques, churches,
and shops.
3.2.3 An Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) has been prepared. Mitigation measures have
been proposed to minimize or compensate for adverse impacts. These include measures to minimize
vegetation clearing; adjusting tower location and span length to minimize the need for tree removal and
trimming along forest edges; Sagging of the line in wildlife corridor should not be less than 10 meters; Mixing
of construction material should be restricted in sensitive ecological areas including corridors and dispersal
areas (material should be prepared off site); Camouflage towers/blend to environment (combat like) in
corridors to reduce reflection to migrating animals; promoting anti-poaching activities; Avoid construction of
the transmission line through wetlands and span wetlands whenever possible; Carry out activities during the
dry season to minimize disturbance of sensitive soils and problems in flood prone areas; Use existing roads
for construction and operational access whenever possible and Regular control of vehicles to prevent
introduction of invasive species. Details of roles and responsibilities for the implementation of the ESMP
have been provided in Technical Annex B8.5. The cost of the ESMP implementation is estimated at USD 1
million and the annual monitoring costs are estimated at USD 951,000.
3.2.4 The positive impacts include; the project will promote and enhance regional integration; provide
employment creation to the local communities during construction; electrification of villages along the
transmission line corridor will improve access by the locals; electrification in some of the public institutions
and villages will improve the local socio-economy.
Climate change
3.2.5 The proposed project is a clean energy project and is perfectly aligned with the climate change
mitigation and adaptation strategy of the Bank. It will contribute to the replacement of fossil-fuelled thermal
generation and improve the climate resilience of both Kenya and Tanzania. The proposed project will facilitate
importation of excess electricity produced in Tanzania into Kenya and vice versa and this will help reduce
overall GHG emissions in both countries. Besides producing electricity, importation is one of the ways Kenya
will have access to the needed power for its development, as proposed in the Least Cost Power Development
Plan (Republic of Kenya, 2011). Indeed, and as shown in the Feasibility study, Kenya would have to produce
2 320 MW of electricity mainly through coal fuel plants (52% or 1 200 MW) and geothermal (48% or 1 120
MW) to meet its power demand between 2014 and 2030. The construction and operation of these plants would
produce, especially in the case of coal power plants, a large amount of GHG (coal produces 955 g of CO2 per
kWh). Improved access to electricity for both countries will also reduce the use of firewood for cooking and
heating, which represents a significant source of deforestation, contributing to climate change. In addition,
access to electricity can reduce the use of private generators and kerosene lamps, which also produce GHG.
Gender
3.2.6 Both Kenya and Tanzania have well elaborated gender mainstreaming policies and strategies which
are grounded in their national constitutions and need to be operationalized in development projects especially
in order to economically empower women. The KETRACO Gender Policy fosters equality in contracting for
services at corporate level, training of staff and employment. While in Kenya the Central Government has
instituted performance evaluation of all public offices that include gender mainstreaming parameters, hence
performance contracts at KETRACO have specific obligations for mainstreaming gender through, among
11
others, contracting for works, goods and services; and deals with disability mainstreaming and youth and
women empowerment.
3.2.7 Similarly, the National Gender Policy for Tanzania obliges all public institutions to mainstream gender
and to appoint gender focal points. The project design has included workshops for staff to bring in gender
awareness to engender policy formulation and operational procedures which are based on gender equality.
Furthermore, employment of workers during construction shall include a quota for women (10% during
construction and 30% during operation). In the case of Tanzania, through the Corporate Social Responsibility
Fund (CSRF), TANESCO will implement a rural electrification programme for the affected communities in
16 villages which include female headed households, estimated to be 13%. Within the project, there will be a
program of HIV and AIDS prevention and awareness campaigns which will impart information to both
women and men who are at risk including school going girls and rural communities. The project has also
included a technical assistance and capacity building component for 18 commercial staff, 20 engineers, 6
economist and legal officers including 4 women. Around 30% of the permanent jobs expected to be created
through the project will be reserved for women. The workplace environment shall be tailored for both men
and women and a code of conduct will be agreed upon between employer and workers in order to curb abuses
perpetrated towards female workers.
Social
3.2.8 In Tanzania, villages located along the transmission line are not electrified. The proposed project
includes a rural electrification component which will consist of providing electricity access to 16 villages
located within a 25km distance from the 400kV transmission line route. Other direct benefits shall accrue to
these communities through creation of short-term jobs. It is anticipated that at least 400 temporary jobs and
35 permanent jobs will be created in the two countries Furthermore, indirect employment shall be created
through supply of local materials which, according to the new procurement regulations in Kenya, 30% of such
locally sourced supplies will be from enterprises owned by women, youth and people with disabilities.
3.2.9 The two countries have rural electrification programs which are connecting as many rural areas as
possible. In Kenya, the Government has embarked on a program for electrifying all government institutions
such as primary schools, clinics and local administration offices. In addition to the rural electrification
program, the utility in Tanzania has a policy of allocating 1% of the total project cost to the CSRF which will
provide energy access through solar sources to community social services such as schools, health centres and
markets that are not connected to the grid. As part of the proposed project, around 21 villages along the route
(16 in Tanzania and 5 in Kenya) have been earmarked for such a program.
3.2.10 This being an interconnection between two countries, the overarching benefits are enhanced
reliability, affordability (low cost electricity from Ethiopia), quality and adequacy of supply to productive
industries of the two countries that would be realised from the power system integration and power trade.
Additional benefits will be realized from leasing out spare capacity in the transmission line’s optical fibre
cable for data and information exchange between the two countries and the world at large.
Involuntary resettlement
3.2.11 The transmission line will pass through properties in the two countries and hence has triggered the
preparation of a RAP. The affected properties and number of households are as follows: 299 in Kenya and
1319 in Tanzania. Of these, 20 households in Kenya have their main structures affected, and 253 in Tanzania
have their primary structures affected. The rest of the affected households have secondary structures, crops
12
and trees affected. The number of households having their livestock grazing within the way leave is estimated
at 105 and 326 in Kenya and Tanzania, respectively. To ensure that the affected households shall be
adequately compensated, budgetary allocations have been set aside to the tune of USD 7. 31 million for Kenya
and USD 39.98 million for Tanzania.
4. IMPLEMENTATION
4.1 Implementation Arrangements
4.1.1 Institutional Arrangements
4.1.1.1 The Republic of Kenya, through the National Treasury, shall be the Borrower of the loan. The Ministry
of Energy will be the Executing Agency and KETRACO will be the Implementing Agency of the project.
The United Republic of Tanzania through its Ministry of Finance shall be the Borrower of the loan.
TANESCO will be the Executing and Implementing Agency of the proposed project.
4.1.1.2 KETRACO acquired the necessary technical and managerial ability to implement such complex
projects, as demonstrated by the ongoing implementation of the Mombasa-Nairobi Transmission Line,
Kenya-Uganda interconnection and the Power Transmission System Improvement Project financed by the
Bank. Similarly, TANESCO has demonstrated adequate technical and managerial ability to implement the
project as with the ongoing implementation of the Iringa - Shinyanga high-voltage transmission project jointly
financed by the AfDB/JICA, the WB and EIB. The involvement of the supervision and management
consultant to be recruited through a competitive selection process will reinforce the capabilities of both
entities.
4.1.1.3 The project will be implemented by national project implementation teams (PITs) designated within
the respective utilities, which will be supervised by a Joint Steering Committee (JSC) composed of
representatives from both countries. Each PIT will be adequately staffed and will be composed of the
following key staff: a project manager, a transmission line engineer, a substation engineer (in Tanzania), a
civil engineer, a procurement expert, an accountant, an environmental expert and a socio-economist. The team
may be supported by other relevant experts from the utility.
4.1.1.4 To address the challenges of effective implementation of the project, a Joint Project Coordinator (JPC)
will be appointed to ensure a smooth coordination and to deal with all project issues common to both
countries. Given that a substantial portion of works will be carried out in Tanzania, the two countries have
agreed that the JPC shall be appointed by TANESCO, in consultation with KETRACO. The role of the JPC
covers the coordination, joint preparation and review of bidding documents, request for proposals and bid
evaluation reports, obtaining of Bank’s approval and negotiation of contracts. The JPC shall also be
responsible for the compilation and transmission of consolidated quarterly project reports to all lenders and
to the two Governments.
4.1.1.5 To ensure effective coordination and harmonized planning of activities, a JSC will be constituted as
an overseer of the Kenya – Tanzania project implementation. The JSC will be composed of Permanent
Secretaries of the both ministries of energy, the Director of External Resources of Kenya, the Commissioner
for External Finance of Tanzania, the Executive officers of TANESCO and KETRACO, the Chief Executive
Officers and the Heads of Department responsible for Transmission from KETRACO and TANESCO. This
committee will oversee the implementation of the project and ensure an effective cooperation between the
two countries. The JSC provides a forum for arbitrating disputes arising between the two PITs that are not
13
resolved at the technical level. It will meet every six months or more often if required. Meetings of the JSC
will be chaired by the Minister of Energy of the country in which the meeting is held.
4.1.2 Procurement Arrangements
4.1.2.1 All procurement of works, and acquisition of consulting services financed by the Bank will be in
accordance with the Bank’s Rules and Procedures: “Rules and Procedures for the Procurement of Goods and
Works” dated May 2008 (revised July 2012); and “Rules and Procedures for the Use of Consultants dated
May 2008 (revised July 2012), as amended from time to time, using the relevant Bank standard bidding and
request for proposal documents, and the provisions stipulated in the Loan Agreements. Both utilities have
been deemed to have adequate capacities and will be responsible for all envisaged procurements in the project.
The procurement of works in Tanzania financed by JICA will also be processed by the Bank, following the
applicable AfDB’s rules and procedures. All the procurement decisions pertaining to the project will be
submitted to JICA for information. The procurement arrangement is detailed in Annex B5.2
4.1.2.2 The JPC, supported by procurement experts from KETRACO and TANESCO, will be responsible for
the procurement of goods, works, and services. A Joint Tender Evaluation Committee composed of
appropriate technical staff designated by each of the project owners will participate in proposal evaluations
for the selection of consultants for project supervision, as well as for the Feasibility Study for the Menengai
(Rongai)-Kilgoris- Mwanza interconnection. KETRACO and TANESCO will separately use their own
arrangements to approve all procurement and contract award decisions and the report will be submitted
through the JPC to the Bank for no-objection. The JPC will be responsible for obtaining the necessary
clearances on all procurement matters.
4.1.2.3 KETRACO and TANESCO will jointly prepare one bidding document for the construction of
transmission lines in both countries. The bidding document shall include the schedule of prices and be
comprised of one lot for Kenya and three lots for Tanzania. A separate bid Evaluation Committee composed
of sufficient senior technical staff shall be established by each country to evaluate bids covering the project
scope in their territory. Bidders will prepare separate bids for Kenya and Tanzania. The bids will be submitted
to KETRACO or TANESCO depending on the bidders’ interest to participate in one of the countries or in
both countries.
4.1.2.4 The two Borrowers have requested for the use of the advance contracting procedure for the
construction of transmission line and substations and the recruitment of the Supervision Consultant. The
project Procurement Plan has been prepared by the Executing Agencies and will be updated for Bank’s
approval before negotiations.
4.1.3 Financial Management Arrangements
4.1.3.1 Financial Management: KETRACO and TANESCO have proper structures in place as well as
adequate staff to carry out the Financial Management (FM) responsibilities of the project. Both entities will
be accountable for the project funds and financial reporting and will use their respective accounting systems
for all the project’s financial transactions. Both entities are currently implementing on-going bank projects
which are at various stages of implementation. The implementing agencies will be required to produce and
submit quarterly Interim Financial Reports to the Bank (format will be agreed with the Bank) no later than 45
days after the end of each quarter. At the end of each financial year and at the end of the project, each entity
will produce financial statements in line with International Financial Reporting Standards.
14
4.1.3.2 Disbursement: the project will use the Direct Payment as described in the Disbursement
Handbook. The Bank’s Disbursement Letter will be issued stipulating key disbursement procedures and
practices.
4.1.3.3 Audit: the internal audit units will incorporate the new project in their work program and issue periodic
reports as it is being done for the on-going projects. The annual financial statements of the project for each
entity will be audited by the respective Country’s Auditor General or a firm appointed by the Auditor General.
The annual Audit Report, complete with a Management Letter and responses, will be submitted to the Bank
no later than six months after the end of the fiscal year. The project will also be subjected to a Value for
Money (VfM) audit at mid-term or when substantial work will have been undertaken. The two governments
(or implementing agencies) are responsible for covering the expenses related to the financial and value for
money audits.
4.1.3.4 Furthermore, the Bank and JICA will conduct supervision missions at least twice every year. The
missions’ objectives will include ensuring that strong financial management systems are maintained for the
project throughout its life. Reviews will be carried out regularly to ensure that expenditures incurred by the
project remain eligible for the ADF and JICA funding.
4.1.4 Monitoring and Evaluation
4.1.4.1 The project will be implemented over a period of 48 months from loan effectiveness. Each PIT will
be responsible for the regular monitoring and reporting on the project implementation progress. The PIT will
have the responsibility to supply data against the set of agreed performance indicators: (i) on an annual basis
for project outcome indicators; (ii) on a quarterly basis for targets based on the expected outputs and propose
corrective measures; (iii) on an annual basis for audit reports; and (iv) bi-annually for ESMP compliance
reports. These reports shall cover all aspects of project implementation and disbursement schedules for all
components; implementation of environmental and social mitigation measures as well as the fulfilment of
loan conditions.
4.1.4.2 The JPC, in liaison with the project supervision and management consultant, will prepare and submit
to the Bank the project quarterly progress reports. The audit report will be submitted to the Bank within six
months after the end of every financial year. Furthermore, the supervision consultant will prepare and submit
final commissioning reports to the PITs and the Bank at the completion of its assignment. The Tanzania field
offices (TZFO) in Dar es Salaam and the Regional Resource Centre in Nairobi, with the support of the
headquarter if need be, will carry out field supervisions twice a year or on an as-needed basis.. The
coordination of the missions will be done by the Ministries of Finance of both countries in collaboration with
KETRACO and TANESCO.
4.2 Governance
4.2.1 The financial management arrangements of KETRACO and TANESCO are considered adequate to
ensure that project resources are used for the purposes for which they were granted, with due consideration
for efficiency and economy. KETRACO has an Audit & Risk Committee (which was reconstituted in 2013)
which is comprised of four non-executive directors and is chaired by a non-executive director. Whereas the
Board has overall responsibility for internal control, the systems of internal controls, certain responsibilities
such as the review of the effectiveness of internal control systems are delegated to the Audit & Risk
committee. Internal controls comprise of methods and procedures adopted by Management to provide
reasonable assurance in safeguarding assets, prevention and detection of errors, accuracy and completeness
of accounting records together with reliability of financial statements. TANESCO has an in Internal Audit
15
Department headed by the Chief Internal Auditor who reports administratively to the MD and functionally to
the Audit committee of the Board of Directors of the entity.
4.2.2 The project implementation will be guided by all existing procedures, manuals, governance and anti-
corruption policies of both countries and external oversight will be provided by the respective Auditor
General. The Bank will also provide some oversight, especially during supervision missions. The internal
audit of the authorities and that of the ministries will complement the oversight of the management. The
proposed value-for-money audit will further help in providing assurance that funds will be used for intended
purposes only with due regard to economy and efficiency.
4.3 Sustainability
4.3.1 The project is technically, economically, and financially sustainable. The technical sustainability is
guaranteed by the use of proven technology widely used in both countries. The economic and financial
sustainability of the project will be supported by the growing demand for electricity in both countries and the
region. Indeed, the regional interconnection provides an opportunity to import hydropower from Ethiopia at
a more competitive price compared to the high cost of thermal generation in both countries.
4.3.2 The realization of the GoK’s strategy for an additional 5,000 MW generation capacity between 2013
and 2017 and the potential to exploit gas reserves in Tanzania will provide further opportunities to exchange
power among countries in the region. Before the end of 2017, the GoT is planning to develop new gas power
plants with a generation capacity of 400 MW.
4.3.4 KETRACO and TANESCO commit themselves to operate the interconnector and perform the
maintenance on the part of the interconnection located on their territory. .
4.4 Risk Management
The project involves some degree of risks. The major risks and mitigation measures are summarized in the
table below. The overall project risk is rated as moderate.
Risk Description Rating Mitigations
GDP Ambitious targets of 10% GDP
in 2022
M In Kenya, the government plan 5000+MW by 2016 is
expected to support numerous economic activities.
Such as mining, production of iron, large scale
irrigation for food security, operation of petroleum
pipelines In Tanzania, the project is included in the
BRN (Big Results Now) which is a priority
programme for the government. The GoT is planning
to develop new gas power plants with a generation
capacity of 400 MW

4.4 Knowledge Building
4.5.1 The construction and consulting contracts will include specific provisions to ensure the training of
KETRACO and TANESCO engineers. Specific training programs will be provided by the contractors
responsible for the construction of the transmission line and substations and will include topics related to the
operation and maintenance of the interconnector. The supervision consultant will provide training in the areas
of project management.
4.5.2 Moreover, the capacity building Programme component will cover training for technical staff of the
utilities in operating and maintaining the 400kV system. The programme will also provide training to
commercial staff of both utilities to reinforce management of commercial transactions. The programme will
also include training in conducting environmental and social impact assessment studies to NEMC and
TANESCO, and will cover issues pertaining to the regulatory environment in the context of power trade,
which will be relevant to experts from the Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA) in
Tanzania and the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) in Kenya.
