The Kenya Electricity Generating Company PLC (KenGen), has been designated to be the Implementing Agency for the Kenyan Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), which is part of the Kenya Green and Resilient Expansion of Energy (GREEN) program, funded by the World Bank.
Technical support for a feasibility study to identify viable green energy solutions at the Port of Mombasa lays a major foundation for such a transition. This project shall create new job opportunities around green technologies and renewable energies and associated value chain resulting in increased income levels and poverty reduction.
This Policy encompasses all aspects of Kenya’s energy sector, including electricity generation, transmission, and distribution; energy access, renewable energy resources, bioenergy and clean cooking solutions; energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.
Enhance knowledge and technical capacity development adoption of emerging low-carbon technologies. In Kenya, carbon credits arise mainly from projects involving renewable energy, forestry, waste management, and agriculture.
