Abstract:The Least Cost Power Development Plan (LCPDP) 2024-2043, published by Kenya's Ministry of Energy & Petroleum, outlines Kenya's long-term strategy for sustainable energy development. It prioritizes renewable energy expansion, including geothermal, hydro, wind, and solar, while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The plan forecasts electricity demand growth, enhances grid infrastructure, and integrates regional power cooperation. It also addresses climate change impacts, energy storage, and affordability. Investments in electric vehicle adoption, transmission upgrades, and policy reforms aim to boost accessibility and reliability. By 2050, Kenya seeks to achieve net-zero emissions through a diversified and resilient energy mix.
