Kenya: Equator Energy has commissioned a 10MW captive solar power plant at Mombasa Cement’s Vipingo facility in Kilifi County. The new installation will reduce the producer’s reliance on the national grid, reduce CO₂ emissions and deliver ‘substantial’ cost savings, according to Equator Energy’s post on LinkedIn. During construction, around 100 temporary jobs were created, while 15 permanent roles have been established to support ongoing operations. The project was implemented under a power purchase agreement (PPA) and is part of broader efforts to boost renewable energy adoption in Kenya’s industrial sector.
