NAIROBI, Dec. 15 (Xinhua) Kenya made a great leap in the renewable energy sector in 2019 when it inaugurated a 50 MW solar power plant located in the northern part of the country.
The plant made the east African nation one of the biggest investors in renewable and clean energy as it hosted the largest grid-connected solar power plant in East and Central Africa.
Over a year since its launch, the power plant built by China Jiangxi Corporation for International Economic and Technical Co-operation (CJIC) in conjunction with Kenya s Rural Energy Authority (REA), is connected to the national grid and is changing lives in the northern part of the country.
