H. E. @WilliamsRuto welcoming @Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz @StateHouseKenya: „🇩🇪🇰🇪friendship growing stronger every year.“ Indeed so many projects and common challenges to work on together as true friends and partners.
Afrikas größte Geothermieanlage Olkaria im schönen Naivasha Nationalpark ist beeindruckend und Teil von Kenias Erfolgs: 90 Prozent des Stroms kommen aus Erneuerbaren Energien. Auch wir wollen unser Potential für #Geothermie stärker nutzen, um zügiger klimaneutral zu wirtschaften.
Kenya has a long history of partnership with Germany, particularly in the energy sector. KfW has been a key partner to @KenGenKenya in developing renewable energy. A total of nine projects have so far been funded. #GermanyInOlkaria#GreenEnergyKE
Ready to face some tough questions - @Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz in Town Hall meeting with 🇰🇪 youth. Discussing Start up scene in #Africa, #TVET, skilled labour immigration, climate/ energy, strengthening democracy in our societies and 🇰🇪🇩🇪 cooperation. Asante sana kwa wote!!
After understanding Kenya's Geothermal story and @KenGenKenya prowess German Chancellor @Bundeskanzler H.E. Olaf Scholz is addressing #GermanyInOlkaria on #GreenEnergyKE cooperation and partnership from the magnificent Olkaria II viewpoint.
Continuing 🇰🇪🇩🇪 exchange on highest level with private sector representatives. Earlier, during working lunch, HE @WilliamsRuto inviting @Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz to visit #Kenya again very soon. Answer - "I will be back!".
Two certainties on the world’s future: Africa is the continent of opportunity & the future shall be built on renewable energy. The German Chancellor’s visit to Olkaria to launch a series of geothermal projects is proof that @KenGenKenya is indeed the future. #GermanyinOlkaria
.@KenGenKenya has adopted a green energy strategy in expanding its generation with an emphasis on renewable sources. In the financial year 2021/2022, 92% of @KenGenKenya's energy sales were from renewable sources. #GermanyInOlkaria#GreenEnergyKE
Kenya's Geothermal energy can be traced back to 1985 when @KenGenKenya commissioned its first 45MW Olkaria I Geothermal power plant and today the company boasts of 799MW of Geothermal installed capacity. #GreenEnergyKE#GermanyInOlkaria
