Description: Kenya’s economy has been growing at approximately 5.1% per year over the last 10 years; however, economic growth is constrained by an insufficient supply of electricity. As of the end of March 2015, Kenya has an installed generation capacity of only 2,295 MW or 0.049 kW per capita. Although this has grown from an installed capacity base of 1,885 MW as of the end of June 2014, it is still very low.
