While we were there, the power went out for a few hours both nights (and the hotel decided to conserve their generators). This wasn’t so bad for the few hours, but I learned that the entire island of Zanzibar (with around a million inhabitants) lost power for several months earlier this year. Additionally, only around 10% of Tanzania has regular access to electricity (which is a kind of vague term that may mean only 70% of the time). This statistic seems incredibly shocking, but sheds light onto why efficiency seems to be quite difficult to achieve.
