The United States Department of Energy has revealed investment plans for Kenya 's green energy transition, focusing on e-mobility and the clean power generation sector.
"The fact that you all have 93 percent of your electricity generated from renewables, that makes us very envious. That's not where we're at in the U.S. We have much more fossil fuels on our grid than you all do. The geothermal that you all have is a leader in the world," said Turk. "It's not just working on the financing in isolation. It's a lot of the policy infrastructure, capacity infrastructure necessary to leverage and get the kinds of financial flows that are possible with clean energy as a cornerstone, and leaning into that comparative advantage that you all have in Kenya," added Turk.
The programme aims to boost Kenya's sustainable energy efforts by providing critical investments to expand the country's production of green electricity as well as improving grid stability and efficiency.
