Lake Turkana - PensionDenmark
In 2007 a group of international investors came up with the idea of establishing a wind park close to lake Turkana. 12 years later 365 wind turbines from Vestas are producing power to Kenya.
On average, the turbines deliver around 150,000 megawatt hours per month; approx. 15% of Kenya’s total electricity production.
The production of fossil-based energy is more than halved from around 230,000 MW hours in January 2018 to around 100,000 MW hours in January 2019.
