A landmark project is the 153 MW/612 MWh Red Sands battery project, which will be the largest standalone storage facility in Africa. . The new 50MW/100MWh battery storage system acts as a giant "energy shock absorber," smoothing out supply like a traffic controller managing Nairobi's notorious gridlock. The project uses lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries – the same technology powering electric buses on Thika Road but scaled up. . The Kenya Electricity Generating Company PLC (KenGen), has been designated to be the Implementing Agency for the Kenyan Battery Energy Storage System (BESS), which is part of the Kenya Green and Resilient Expansion of Energy (GREEN) program, funded by the World Bank. KenGen is the leading electric. . Across Africa, there are currently approximately 2,902 MWh of battery capacity supporting renewable energy projects, namely solar PV parks. Founded by a team of highly experienced energy, finance and social impact professionals, we develop, construct, own, and operate large-scale BESS, positioning us at the forefront of. .
