Kenya gears up for tests on planned natural gas plant
The LNG plant, to be built in phases, will lower the amount of thermal power that Kenya Power taps to stabilise power supply in the Coast region and countrywide when demand peaks in the evening.
Kenya is set to test the commercial viability of a planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) power plant as it steps up efforts to remove the expensive diesel-powered thermal plants for the national grid and offer consumers cheaper electricity.
The Public Private Partnership (PPP) Unit of the National Treasury is already recruiting an expert to, among other things, test the commercial viability of the planned 1,200 megawatt (MW) plant.
