Completion of the Sh15.7 billion Lake Turkana Wind Power (LTWP) transmission line now hangs in the balance after the main contractor, Isolux Corsan of Spain, folded.
Construction of the 428km high-voltage line to evacuate electricity from the 300-megawatt Lake Turkana Wind Power, Africa’s largest wind farm, commenced in 2015 and has stalled since the Madrid-based firm started experiencing a financial crunch.
