As stated by President Uhuru Kenyatta at the COP26 – back to November 2021 – “Renewable energy in Kenya currently accounts for 73% of the installed power generation capacity, while 90% of the electricity in use is from clean sources, among them geothermal, wind, solar and hydro-electric installations. We are on course to achieve our target of 100% use of clean energy by 2030 and to achieve 100% access to clean cooking by 2028”.
Indeed, as of 2020, 87% of the country’s electricity already came from renewable sources, and further transition to reach fully renewable energy will continue to boost benefits for the population and environment, and reduce production costs.
Renewable energy projects and investement opportunities will be under discussion at RENPOWER KENYA 2022, the premier ‘in person’ energy event which takes place on 6 July at the Olare Mara Kempinski Masai Mara hotel in Nairobi.
