Kenya is soliciting partnerships with Italian investors in order to build its geothermal capacity

Notwithstanding the enormous potential given by geothermal output, its development has been gradual, owing to, among other things, the large upfront financial commitments necessary by IPPs for infrastructure development; exploration, geothermal well drilling, and power plant building.

Kenya is looking for Italian investors to help it reach its goal of increasing its national installed geothermal capacity to 10,000 MW by 2037. This is more than ten times the present capacity of 949.13MW as of June 2022.

The event aims to provide Italian participants with new potential for geothermal investment, technical and commercial collaboration with Kenyan peers.
