I still don’t understand why Malawians keep hoping for miracles from Egenco and Escom. The bottom line is that both Egenco and Escom have failed and they don’t know how to get Malawi out of the situation they find themselves in. Their masters (the so called caring politicians) have failed them and so have they. Change of guard to political and parastatal level is the only solution. New vision and new strategies required and there plenty around.

The future of Malawi electricity is on Kammwamba coal fired project otherwise this hydro power generation on Shire river is unreliable and will be getting worse each and every year. The growing population is the main contributing factor. Increased use of Lake Malawi and its tributary waters for both domestic, industrial and irrigation use is continuously reducing the lake levels and surely within coming 100 years Shire river will dry up. Govt would have encouraged all major irrigation schemes to be in lower shire to save Lake Malawi dwindling levels.

” … 100 per cent of the power would return,” he said. However, this was not the case in Lilongwe.”

Owen Khamula & Nyasa Times: Why not contact Escom to ask why there are prolonged blackouts in Lilongwe? Perhaps Escom is working on transformers or power lines as part of the MCC (or whatever) project. That is to say, Egengo may be making the power, but Escom is failing to deliver it.
