A 192-Kilometre Power Corridor Could Redraw Zambia and Malawi’s Energy Security

The World Bank has approved a $43 million International Development Association grant for the Zambia-Malawi Interconnector Project, supporting Zambia’s section of a planned 192-kilometre cross-border transmission corridor. The project could widen access to regional electricity markets and reduce exposure to domestic shortages, but its impact will depend on available generation, functioning power-trade arrangements and coordinated implementation across both countries.
