Power FM Zimbabwe
Power FM, previously known as Radio 3 and later 3 FM, is ZBC's music radio station that broadcasts music 24/7.

It is the country's first radio station to broadcast 24 hours. It is most notable for pioneering the local music genre known as Urban Grooves, which is the country's local youth orientated pop music.

The station was renamed to Power FM in 2004, at the time when it was broadcasting 100% Zimbabwean music only, a law enforced by the then Zimbabwe's Information and Broadcasting minister, Jonathan Moyo.

It broadcasts mainly from the country's capital, Harare as well as the country's industrial capital city of Bulawayo. It is accessible throughout the country on frequency modulation, and across the world through online streaming on various platforms, including its website.

The station's main target audience is the urban youth. The station's music library consist of a mixture of genres across the country and the world at large. There is a weekly music chart which consists of local hits, music from across Africa and around the world. Most popular music genres found in the station include pop, old school, house, reggae, dancehall and most notably the local Urban Grooves and Zim Dancehall.
