We’re proud to share that Energetech, in partnership with Tantel, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) to develop Tanzania’s first small-scale modular liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility, with operations targeted to begin in 2026.
This strategic agreement marks an important entry into Tanzania’s oil and gas sector, combining local insight with international energy expertise to unlock new potential across the region.
East Africa has historically faced considerable challenges due to limited energy infrastructure, forcing industries to depend on imported fuels and diesel generation. This reliance inflates energy costs, impedes economic growth, and increases carbon emissions. Small-scale LNG projects like Energetech Tantel’s facility are increasingly recognized globally as efficient solutions to bridge infrastructure gaps, enabling rapid deployment of clean, economical energy.
Energetech Tantel intends to establish Tanzania as a central hub for LNG storage and distribution in East and Central Africa, significantly enhancing energy affordability, security, and environmental sustainability across the region.
This is more than an energy project. It’s a step toward a more resilient, cleaner energy future for Tanzania and the region.
