Kenya requires approximately Sh30.4 billion ($235 million) to equip around 3,800 health facilities across the country that currently lack electricity, and to stabilise backup power for existing connections.
An analysis by Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) reveals that of this total amount needed—inclusive of Sh17.2 billion ($133 million) for private facilities and Sh13.1 billion ($102 million) for public facilities—only about Sh1.3 billion ($10 million) has been provided by donors, resulting in a funding gap of Sh29.1 billion ($225 million).
