Under the PA Initiative, launched in June 2013, President Obama announced the USG’s commitment to double access to double the number of people in sub-Saharan Africa with access to electricity through a multi-stakeholder partnership, in particular engaging the Governments of Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Liberia, Nigeria and Tanzania (the original PA focus countries), twelve Agencies of the US Government (USG), private sector investors, the World Bank and African Development Bank, and other public and private partners. the Tanzania Senior Energy Advisor will perform a senior leadership role in managing the implementation of the USAID/Tanzania energy program and in providing technical assistance and policy support to the GoT counterparts, including Ministry of Energy and Minerals (MEM), the Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority (EWURA), the Tanzania Electricity Supply Company Ltd. (TANESCO), the Zanzibar Electricity Corporation (ZECO), the Rural Energy Agency (REA), and the Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC) and other GOT power-related agencies, as well as support to the BRN Presidential Delivery Bureau.
