OLKARIA 1

Olkaria I Power Station was the first geothermal power plant in Africa, with Kenya being the first country to build geothermal energy sources. Geothermal power has the potential to provide reliable, cost-competitive, baseload power with a small carbon footprint, and reduces vulnerability to climate by diversifying power supply away from hydropower, which currently provides most of Kenya's electricity.

The dedication and quality-focused mind of our #HumansOfCEG have been required to fulfil our commitment towards our partners and deliver quality civil, mechanical, and piping work, including 10, 000 cube metres of concrete batching & pouring, 1, 000 Tons of reinforcement bars installation,1, 000 Tons of powerhouse steel structure installation to a maximum height of 28.5m, associated in plant road & drainage works and substation foundations.

Now completed, the plant helps driving down the cost of electricity in Kenya by displacing thermal energy while meeting the country's growing demand for electricity.
