Abstract

Government action is pivotal in building secure, inclusive and sustainable energy systems. Energy policy is critical not just for the energy sector but also for meeting environmental, economic and social goals. Governments need to respond to national specific needs, adapt to regional contexts, and help address global challenges. In this context, the International Energy Agency (IEA) conducts Energy Policy Reviews to support governments in developing more impactful energy and climate policies.

This Energy Policy Review of Kenya was prepared in collaboration between the government of Kenya and the IEA, whose strong partnership achieved an important milestone in 2023 when Kenya joined the IEA family as an Association country.

The review leverages the IEA’s extensive knowledge and the inputs of expert peers from IEA member countries to assess Kenya’s most pressing energy challenges and provide recommendations backed by international best practices, especially as Kenya revises its 2018 Energy Policy to adapt it to current energy trends and needs.

The report highlights Kenya’s leadership in areas such as promoting universal access to modern energy and developing its renewable energy capacity, especially geothermal. It also encourages the exchange of best practices among countries to foster learning and strengthen political will for a sustainable and affordable clean energy future.
