Maputo, 14 April (FUNAE) – Part of the mini-networks built by the Energy Fund (FUNAE,FP), in several parts of the country, is now managed by private entities within the framework of the institution's decision on energy generation infrastructure.

To this end, FUNAE has today entered into a service contract in Maputo with three private entities to move to the private management of the mini-networks, granted to "clusters" schemes.

This is TelConsultores, the ADEL & KKZ Group and NONISA Consortium They will manage privately existing plants in the provinces of Cabo Delgado, Niassa, Nampula, Zambézia, Inhambane and Maputo province.

In the first three months, the FUNAE will monitor the new managers of the mini-networks, with a view to ensuring the transmission of technical knowledge as well as the presentation to the communities in the places where the electricity generation infrastructures were deployed.
