Renewable Energy in Kenya

Energy, Transport and Climate Change Cluster
Objective (DC Program): The modernization of the renewable energy sector contributes to sustainable economic development, improving the quality of life of the population and achieving Kenya's climate targets.
Total Volume: ~ 62.000.000 EUR

Power System Readiness for Variable Renewable Energies

OBJECTIVE: Improve the preconditions for system-friendly and cost-efficient integration of Variable Renewable Energies (VRE) in the Kenyan electricity grid.
2019 - 2023

  • Energy policy - Improve capacities to prepare technical facts / statements for policy and public dialogues on VRE power system integration.
  • Energy planning - Improve analytical and planning capacities to increase the power system’s VRE-readiness.
  • Regulations - Support EPRA to improve regulatory capacities for increasing the power system’s technical and economical VRE-readiness.
  • Operations - Provide developers, power plant and grid operators with up-to-date expertise for the VRE - compatible design and operation of the power system.

Commissioning Partners

  • German Federal Ministry of Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ)
  • Green Climate Fund (GCF)
  • Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID)
  • Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs (DGIS)
