Pan-African infrastructure investment platform Africa50 signed a joint development agreement with Power Grid Corporation of India Limited (POWERGRID) to develop the Kenya Transmission Project on a public-private partnership (PPP) basis. POWERGRID will provide technical and operational know-how to the project. Africa50 will bring its project development and finance expertise and act as a bridge between the Kenyan government and private investors. Once completed, the project will be the first independent power transmission in Kenya and set a reference point in Africa as the first financing of transmission lines on a PPP basis. This project will also improve the supply and reliability of power transmission in Western Kenya.

GE Renewable Energy received an order from Continuum Trinethra Renewables to supply, install and commission 37 units of its 2.7-132 onshore wind turbines for the 99.9 MW Rajkot wind farm. The project will leverage GE’s significant local footprint in India with product design primarily at GE’s Technology Center in Bengaluru, blades manufactured in GE’s facility in Vadodara, and assembly at the GE Multi-modal Manufacturing Facility in Pune. The Rajkot wind farm will power various industries and commercial establishments in Gujrat. Last year, GE and Continuum signed an agreement to supply turbines to the 148.5 MW Morjar, Bhuj wind farm in Gujarat, India.

In joint venture partnership with renewable project developer DP Energy, EDF Renewables is expected to generate up to 1 GW of low carbon green energy in the Celtic Sea. Work includes identifying a refined area of search and detailed constraint studies for the project’s proposed location. The project is likely to span English and Welsh waters. The floating offshore wind project called Gwynt Glas will provide power for approximately 927,400 homes.
