Historically,
the German colonialists established the first public electricity supply
in Tanzania, the then called Tanganyika in 1908 at Dar es Salaam. It
served the railway workshops and a part of the town where the
colonialists were mostly staying. In 1920, when Tanganyika territory was
put under Great Britain protectorate, a Government Electricity
Department was formed to take over and operate the public supplies left
by the Germans. In 1931, the Government handed over the undertaking at
Dar es Salaam and those elsewhere upcountry (Dodoma, Tabora and Kigoma)
to private enterprises. One of these companies was the Tanganyika
Electric Supply Company Ltd. (TANESCO) and the other Company was the Dar
es Salaam and District Electric Supply Company Ltd (DARESCO). The two
companies were merged in 1964 and later changed its name into Tanzania
Electric Supply Company (TANESCO).
