The Amu Power Coal Plant will sell power at the lowest tariff of US ¢7.814/kWh (current average rate US ¢12.83/kWh), in the long run, this will reduce power costs in the country by 12% - 36%. #TheGreatEnergyDebateKE

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

Additionally, the power project will have a seven times multiplier effect due to industries supported by affordable power and direct business through the supply chain including steel smelting, cement manufacture and service industries #SupportingBig4Agenda #TheGreatEnergyDebateKE

Kenya needs a better energy mix. In a post ‘COP21’ world, countries are putting more emphasis on attaining the right mix of fuel sources to meet both demand and emissions goals. #TheGreatEnergyDebateKE

#WhyCoal? The Lamu Coal Power plant will transform lives of communities in Lamu by delivering socio-economic benefits such as creation of direct & indirect employment, stimulation of local businesses and development of physical & social amenities.

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

#WhyCoal? Mixing renewable, gas and coal power generation will consequently enable consumers access reliable and affordable power.

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

#WhyCoal? Most renewable sources of power are intermittent & unpredictable hence a country requires a steady base load power generation to have a stable grid. Coal is ideal for base load while renewable are ideal for peak loads.

Amu power plant will be the single largest energy PPP in East & Central Africa, and a major infrastructure undertaking in Kenya. It will deliver economic and community development through employment and give a multiplier effect of 7X in the supply chain #SupportingBig4

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

Did you know that the Amu Power coal plant has invested in a clean coal technology through an agreement with GE that will see the plant use ultra-super-Critical technology? This will make it one of the most technologically advanced coal power plants in the world #WhyCoal

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

Why coal power? Statistics show that connections to the national grid grew to 6.2m in 2017 up from 1m in 2010. As the country moves towards attaining V2030 goals, supply of adequate, reliable and affordable energy is a key foundation.

Lamu Power Plant project is part of the GoK’s vital & crucial initiative in the energy sector aimed to address electricity affordability & reliability challenges. @GulfEnergyKE is working with @generalelectric #AmchamBig4Summit @KEnergyministry @UKenyatta @Kiptoock #Big4agenda

[Amu Power @AmuPower]

Kenya needs a diverse energy mix, the 1050MW Lamu @AmuPower power project will use US Multinational conglomerate @generalelectric ultra-super critical technology. The project will guarantee that up to 30% of electricity produced in Kenya is reliable baseload power. https://t.co/vUXkRFsw2R
