The Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) plans to drill 42 new geothermal wells for an estimated Sh23.29 billion as it targets to deepen the share of clean energy in the national grid.
Regulatory filings showed that the wells will be built at Olkaria geothermal field in Hell’s Gate National Park over a five-year period, with KenGen estimating that the project will add 200 megawatts (MW) of geothermal power.
