Kenya and the United States enjoy strong national and sub-national ties, with California, the wealthiest State in the US, being a key partner in innovation, sustainability, and shared prosperity.
California’s leadership in technology and climate innovation, together with Kenya’s Silicon Savannah and our vibrant, young and digitally+skilled workforce, creates unmatched opportunities for collaboration. Kenya leads in climate action, with a 93% renewable energy grid, targeting 100% by 2030 and 100GW by 2040.
Together, we are advancing clean energy systems, smart agriculture, research, AI, trade, and clean transportation, including the upcoming Africa Clean Transportation Centre of Excellence in Nairobi.
Hosted a delegation of California State Secretaries and private sector led by State Secretary of Transportation Toks Omishakin. Also present was US Embassy Charge d'Affaires Carla Benini.
