Notes
Kibo Energy PLC is a multi-asset, Africa focused, energy company positioned to address the
acute power deficit, which is one of the primary impediments to economic development in Sub-
Saharan Africa. To this end, it is the Company’s objective to become a leading independent
power producer in the region.
Kibo is simultaneously developing three similar coal-fuelled power projects: the Mbeya Coal
to Power Project (‘MCPP’) in Tanzania; the Mabesekwa Coal Independent Power Project
(‘MCIPP’) in Botswana; and the Benga Independent Power Project (‘BIPP’) in Mozambique.
By developing these projects in parallel, the Company intends to leverage considerable
economies of scale and timing in respect of strategic partnerships, procurement, equipment,
human capital, execution capability / capacity and project finance.
