Outline of GHG Mitigation Activity

1.4 MW and 0.3MW solar power systems are installed at a new cold storage facility in Tatu City Industrial Park of Kiambu County, and at a battery case factory in Nairobi County to supply power to the facilities respectively and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by replacing a part of the electricity consumption from the electricity grid. 
This project contributes to the achievement of Kenya’s policy for transitioning to 100% clean energy by 2030.
