Our History

After the National Independence, in 1977 the merger of a group of companies resulted in the creation of a state-owned company of electrical engineering namely Electromoc E.E. In 1992 this company was privatized and was renamed Tecnel SARL.

 

From the Service and Technical Assistance Division of Tecnel SARL in 1996 the company ABB Tecnel was created. A company between ABB, a multinational in the engineering sector with 60% of the capital and Tecnel SARL with 40%. ABB Tecnel operated in the field of electrical engineering and was primarily engaged in the sale, repair and assistance of electric motors, transformers, generators and low, medium and high voltage equipment.

With the acquisition of ABB’s stake in ABB Tecnel Lda, in 2007 Tecnel Service, Lda was formed with solely Mozambican capital. Tecnel Service until this day has maintained strong commercial ties with ABB and other highly reputable international companies.

In recent years, Tecnel Service has been making important investments in infrastructure expansion and modernization of equipment, as well as investing in the recruitment, training and qualification of workers and technicians,  a self-empowerment necessary to face future challenges in the energy sector.

The state-owned electric company Electromoc E.E. was founded.
