KenGen Kenya KenGen is the leading electric energy producer in East Africa

The history of KenGen date back to February 1, 1954 when the company was incorporated under the Companies Act (Chapter 486 of the Laws of Kenya) as Kenya Power Company
(KPC) to construct the transmission line between Nairobi and Tororo in Uganda as well as to develop geothermal and other generating
facilities in the country. Since its inception, KPC sold electricity in bulk at cost to Kenya Power under a management contract. Following reforms in the energy sector reforms in 1996, the management
of KPC was formally separated from Kenya Power and renamed KenGen in January 1997. In 2006, KenGen was listed on the Nairobi
Securities Exchange after the Government of Kenya sold 30% of its stake in the company through one of Kenya's most successful Initial Public Offer (IPO). KenGen owns thirty (30) power generating plants spread across the beautiful land of Kenya with a combined installed capacity of 1,904MW from diverse generation
modes comprising mainly geothermal, hydro, and wind energy sources.

KenGen Kenya today hosted Her Imperial Highness Princess Takamado of Japan during her visit to Kenya, accompanied by the Ambassador of Japan to Kenya, H.E. Hiroshi Matsuura. KenGen MD & CEO, Eng. Peter Njenga, welcomed Her Imperial Highness alongside General Manager, Geothermal Development, Peketsa Mangi, and Richard Mavisi Liahona, representing the State Department for Energy.

For decades, Japan has been an important partner in Kenya’s energy development, supporting the expansion and modernization of infrastructure, technical capacity and geothermal development, while Kenya’s position as a global leader in geothermal energy has created a strong foundation for practical cooperation around clean energy and the wider energy transition.

The relationship also speaks to a broader energy diplomacy agenda in which countries can work together not only to increase electricity generation, but to advance energy security, climate resilience, regional power trade and sustainable economic development.
