KenGen will develop the second biggest wind power plant in Kenya, with an initial capacity of 200 megawatts (MW) as the firm spearheads the country’s efforts of fully greening the national grid by 2030.

The power producer revealed that it is finalising consultations with the local communities in Marsabit County over land acquisition for the multi-billion plant whose construction is expected to start in 2026.
