Kenya & East Africa

East Africa: The Future of Green Energy Investment

Descriptive alt text

Why East Africa is the ideal destination for green energy investment

The global energy landscape is shifting rapidly from fossil fuels to renewable solutions, and East Africa stands at the forefront of this transition. With Kenya and the broader region comprising 60-70% arid and semi-arid land, coupled with an average solar irradiation of 5–6 kWh/m²/day for 12 months a year, this region holds unparalleled potential for solar energy generation.

Unmatched Renewable Potential

  • Solar Power: East Africa's vast, non-arable land could generate over 15,000 MW annually if harnessed, significantly augmenting stretched national grids.
  • Vision 2030 Alignment: Kenya's national development blueprint prioritizes renewable energy, with Kenya Power (KPLC) willing to pay higher rates for reliable power, especially from renewable sources, to reduce reliance on expensive thermal power.
