}}Tororo Wind Power Station is a planned {{convert|20|MW|abbr=on}} wind-powered power station in the Eastern Region of Uganda.[1]

Location

The power station would be located approximately {{convert|8|km|0}} by road outside the Eastern Region town of Tororo, on the road to Kampala,[2] Uganda's capital and largest city. Tororo is approximately {{convert|208|km|0}} to the east of Kampala.[3]

Overview

To help diversify Uganda's electricity sources, Xsabo Power Limited and associated companies have proposed to establish five wind parks in Uganda, with a maximum generation capacity of {{convert|100|MW|abbr=on}}. This station would be the first to be developed.[2][4]

In April 2015, the developers of this wind farm applied for an electricity generation license from the Electricity Regulatory Authority to set up the power station and sell the electricity to the Uganda Electricity Transmission Company Limited for integration into the national grid.[5] In September 2015, a provisional generation license was granted. In February 2016, that license was modified, with the company having until March 2016 to post performance bonds and until June 2016 to reach financial close.[6]

Developers and funding

Xsabo Power Limited is the same entity that is developing the Kabulasoke Solar Power Station. Together, these renewable energy installations are budgeted to cost US$64 million (approximately UGX:214.272 billion), two-thirds of which will be borrowed.[6]

Timeline

Construction was expected to begin in August 2016 and commissioning was expected in December 2016.[6] In February 2017, the Daily Monitor newspaper reported that the developers of the power station had failed to raise the required US$150,000 in performance guarantees and risked the cancellation of their generation licenses.[1]
