Path Forward
Learn more about our goals towards sustainably powering Kenya and Somalia.
Powering Kenya
Beled Energy aims develop renewable energy projects to improve the rural electrification challenges in Kenya by providing electricity services to underserved and remote counties.
There are 14 identified Kenyan counties defined as marginalized in terms of access to electricity by the Commission on Revenue Allocation (CRA). These counties currently have a 23 percent rate of connectivity to electricity, compared to the national average of 70%.
Sustainably powering Somalia
Our goal is to empower Somalia in the efforts of reducing CO2 emissions by 2025 and aid in achieving net zero by 2050. Below is the current factsheet on Somalia’s energy production and consumption.
Somalia has been identified as the least electrified countries in the world with only 36% of the urban population and 11% in rural areas having access electricity.
