Google invests in Lake Turkana, power project

Google has announced its commitment to invest Sh4 billion in the Lake Turkana Wind Power Project. Once operational, the project will bring 310 megawatts of clean energy onto Kenya’s national grid, enough to power more than two million households across the country.

Lake Turkana will help bring much needed capacity and stability to Kenya’s energy supply, reducing reliance on fossil fuels and emergency diesel generation, while providing cost effective energy.
