Kenya and China have signed an agreement to roll out 80 off-grid solar power systems, aiming to expand electricity access in remote, underserved communities.
The agreement was announced during a meeting between Chinese Ambassador to Kenya, Guo Haiyan, and Energy Principal Secretary, Alex Wachira, where the two nations reiterated their commitment to strengthening cooperation in renewable energy and climate action.
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), signed by Kenya’s Ministry of Energy and Petroleum and China’s Ministry of Ecology and Environment at the Kawi Complex in Nairobi, establishes the framework for the Africa Solar Belt Project.
