7.2 Geothermal Resource Potential in Kenya 7.3 Notable Geothermal Projects in Kenya The East-African Rift Valley is one of the largest and most promising geothermal resources in the world. The estimated geothermal potential in the Rift Valley in Kenya ranges from 7,000 MW to 10,000 MW.70 There are 14 potential sites along the Rift Valley that have high temperatures. Kenya also has geothermal resources in the Homa Hills in Nyanza, Mwananyamala at the Coast, and Nyambene Ridges.71 The Geothermal Development Company, the state-owned agency in charge of geothermal exploration and development, is focusing on developing steam resources in three primary resources areas: Menengai, Bogoria–Silali, and Suswa. Kenya is planning to aggressively develop its geothermal resources. The draft energy policy set a target of developing at least 1,900 MW of geothermal generation by 2016 and 5,500 MW by 2030.72 This will require an estimated capital investment of US$18 billion.73 Kenya has an installed capacity of 209 MW and is planning to aggressively increase its geothermal generation in upcoming years.74 As part of its plan to increase geothermal generation, the government is planning to partner with the private sector. In the past, most of the geothermal plants have been developed by KenGen, Kenya’s state-owned generation company, with multilateral support. However, there are two notable exceptions that provide insight into how Kenya is planning to develop its geothermal resources going forward and that provide key lessons about how to successfully involve the private sector. The first is the Olkaria III geothermal power station; the second are the geothermal plants that the government is currently working to develop in the Menengai field. 70.
