Kenya - CICSA

Partner Country: Kenya

Initial findings for Kenya

Captive PV is currently competitive and tariffs are expected to go up
Simplified regulatory environment for self-consumption plants below 1MW
Clean captive power uptake in Kenya is strong and growing; good potential market in manufacturing industry
Time-of-Use tariff may or may not affect demand for captive power
Some bank financing is available thanks in large part to donor support
Active ecosystem of captive power players including private financiers and Energy Service Companies (ESCOs)

We would like to invite you to join us for a Webinar on Clean Captive Installations for Industrial Clients in Sub-Sahara Africa.

The United Nations Environment Programme, in partnership with its collaborating Centre at Frankfurt School of Finance and Management, is implementing the “Clean Captive Installations for Industrial Clients in Sub-Sahara Africa” Project in four countries: Ghana, Kenya, Nigeria and South Africa. The project aims to demonstrate the economic and financial viability of clean captive energy installations for industries and enhance their adoption of a replicable model in the four partner countries and beyond to the entire continent.

This project is part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI) of Germany. The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety supports this initiative based on a decision adopted by the German Bundestag. As part of this project, solar commercial and industrial pilot projects will be supported in each of the countries.

For this live Webinar, we will present two sessions on Call for Proposal for Pilot Projects and Kenya overview of the C&I solar market.
