NAIROBI, KENYA: General Electric will start building a 100 MW wind power farm in Kenya early next year. The GE Distributed Power business leader in Sub-Saharan Africa George Njenga told reporters Thursday that the legal procedures for the $300 million (Sh26.7 billion) project for the Kipeto Wind Farm will be completed after 18 months.
“We have met 90 per cent of the documentation and all land requirements have been achieved. The negotiations with Kenya Power are at an advanced stage,” he said.
