ZESA's strength is TRANSMISSION infrastructure, not power generation with DPA CEO Norman Moyo
<h1>Episode Notes</h1> <p>On this episode of Technikari, I was joined by Norman Moyo the CEO of the Econet Group subsidiary that Strive Masiyiwa said would be bigger than Liquid Intelligent Technologies and Econet Wireless - Distributed Power Africa (DPA). We discussed the state of power generation in Africa with a particular focus on the Zimbabwe Electricity Supply Authority (ZESA) and the shortfalls in power production that have been a feature of the last two decades and how that relates to Independent Power Producers (IPPs). We also covered:</p> <ul> <li>Why Independent Power Producers, like DPA, are only installing solar at mines and factories.</li> <li>The equity deal DPA has with France's national power company EDF.</li> <li>ZESA's strength is the transmission infrastructure it has, they should leverage that and let private players generate electricity.</li> <li>The legacy debt and other problems plaguing ZESA and its African counterparts.</li> <li>ZESA is importing expensive electricity and selling it to customers at a discount. This is unsustainable...</li> <li>The US$100 Billion for renewable energy fund that Zimbabwe and Africa are missing out on.</li> <li>Will DPA meet the ambition that Strive Masiyiwa has for it?</li> <li>Nuclear power is too far off for Africa. We have the sun, let's use it.</li> </ul> <p>This podcast is powered by <a href="https://pinecast.com" rel="nofollow">Pinecast</a>.</p>

King Kandoro: Zimbabwe's economy is a Mshikashika
<h1>Episode Notes</h1> <p>The recent policy measures that were put in place by the government left many scratching their heads as to what is going on in Zimbabwe. The most confusing one of them all was the banning of credit which was overturned, but not as loudly as loans were banned. To get stuck into the immediate and future effects of new policies (those that remain), we were joined on this episode of Technikari by a peerless economic mind, a man who needs no introduction, the one and only King Kandoro.</p> <p>This podcast is powered by <a href="https://pinecast.com" rel="nofollow">Pinecast</a>.</p>

Mike Madoda & Barry Manandi: Football before social media in Zim & the state of the PSL
<h1>Episode Notes</h1> <p>On this episode of Technikari, I was joined by one of the best sportscasting duos out there, Barry Manandi and Mike Madoda. I am sure all of you have heard their voices over the radio or seen them on TV and I had the pleasure of picking their brains about what football was as a young fan before the advent of social media. It was a different world back then and they shared their experiences from those days that I can only imagine were in black and white.</p> <p>"Dynamos would play Highlanders on a Sunday and if you were from our background, I come from a rural background, you would be getting the Parade Magazine that would come out a month later and you'd still be keen on the story. Even though the game was played three weeks ago it will have the pictures and the centre spread of the winning team" - Mike</p> <p>This podcast is powered by <a href="https://pinecast.com" rel="nofollow">Pinecast</a>.</p>
