Currently, Kenya’s total installed capacity stands at 2,807MW. Out of this KenGen has an installed energy capacity of 1,718 MW with leading energy type being hydro (818MW) followed by geothermal at 620MW, thermal at 253.5MW and wind at 25.5MW. #EnergyForTheNation #EnergyChampion

Globally, the country is among the top 10 producers of geothermal energy. With the inclusion of additional capacity from 87MW #OlkariaV unit 1, Kenya has geothermal installed capacity of 777MW. #EnergyForTheNation #EnergyChampion

KenGen is pleased to announce successful synchronization of #OlkariaV unit 1 to the national grid on Friday 26th July.
The unit achieved the design full load of 86.6 MW at 1720 hrs on Saturday 27th which is above the rated capacity of 82.7 MW. #EnergyForTheNation

The applications for direct-use of geothermal energy vary according to temperature. For example, the temperature required for heating a greenhouse is significantly lower than the temperature required for drying harvested crops. https://t.co/p3prfIvRjj
