KG, in relation to the feasibility study for the proposed 380 km, 400kV Mozambique &#8211; Zambia interconnector transmission line (the \u201cProject\u201d). Our role includes preparing a legal environment report that identifies the relevant policy, regulatory and institutional frameworks governing the development and operation of transmission infrastructure in both Mozambique and Zambia. The Project is currently at feasibility stage and is intended to support the Client, as well as the governments of Mozambique and Zambia, in evaluating the viability of the interconnector and selecting the most effective investment and procurement models to achieve value for money. This transaction is of strategic regional importance as the governments of Mozambique and Zambia have committed to strengthening bilateral cooperation through the interconnection of their power systems. Mozambique possesses abundant and diversified generation potential across gas, coal, hydro, and renewable energy sources, while Zambia is currently experiencing power deficits, exacerbated by increasingly frequent droughts linked to climate change. The interconnector is expected to reduce regional imbalances between electricity supply and demand, enhance the reliability and resilience of power supply in Zambia, and unlock the potential for electricity trade within the Southern African Power Pool. The significance of this initiative has been underscored by high-level political support, including the signing of Memoranda of Understanding between the two countries\u2014first in 2016, and most recently in March 2025 at the 12th edition of the Zambia International Mining &amp; Energy Conference (ZIMEC 2025) in Kitwe.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-abb1e6f e-grid e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"abb1e6f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a5f37db elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"a5f37db\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>MAY and Company is acting as local counsel for China Datang Overseas Investment Co Limited in the development of a 100MW greenfield PV solar project in the Southern Province of Zambia.
