Summary
KenGen also expects the experts to help in developing models that can cut drilling time and maximise the production.
Kenya plans to increase the installed power capacity from 2,298 mw to about 17,760mw by 2030, with geothermal expected to contribute about 7,000mw.
The target was on projected power peak demand of 15,000mw in 2030 but this is currently at below 2,000mw and has left Kenya Power with idle electricity.
Kenya Electricity Generating Company #ticker:KEGN (KenGen) wants to install new geothermal power plants with a capacity of up to 682 megawatts (mw) in the next four years, setting stage for cheaper electricity.
