– Partnering between Tanzania Electric Supply Company and China’s Tabiau Electric Apparatus Stock Co Ltd to expand electric grids from Dar es Salaam to northern Tanzania.

– Partnering between the National Housing Corporation, China Railway Jianchang Engineering, and Poly Technology to construct residential housing and business centers throughout Tanzania.

– Partnering between the National Development Corporation, China Dalian International Economic & Technical Corporation Group, and Hydro Kunming Engineering Corporation to construct a renewable energy research center. 

Chinese companies are also eyeing the oil and gas blocks which just opened for bidding last week after the Tanzanian Oil and Gas conference.
