Welcome Note from RPCL Managing Director
Dear Guests and Visitors,
Ladies and Gentlemen,
RPCL is a special purpose company incorporated under the laws of Rwanda and maintains a certificate of compliance in Tanzania. RPCL is jointly and equally owned by the Governments of Burundi, Rwanda, and Tanzania. RPCL operates the 80MW Rusumo Power Plant at the affluent Akagera river along Rusumo Falls at the border of Rwanda and Tanzania. The 80MW Power Plant is connected to substations located in Nyakanazi in Tanzania, Gitega and Muyinga in Burundi and Bugesera in Rwanda. The Plant sells the generated electricity to three National Utilities: REGIDESO in Burundi, TANESCOTanzania and REG in Rwanda.
RPCL produces affordable electricity using a clean and hydro renewable source of energy. RPCL operates and maintains the Plant at the lowest cost and with maximum efficiency and professionalism while safeguarding staff, the public and the environment.
On behalf of RPCL employees and on my own behalf, we look forward to an interactive engagement with all the visitors of our website.
