When William Ruto was sworn in as Kenya’s fifth president in September 2022, he used his inauguration speech to demand an end to humanity’s “addiction to fossil fuels” and reaffirmed Kenya’s commitment to reach 100% clean energy by 2030. Kenya is not far off this target today.

In 2021, 81% of Kenya’s electricity generation came from the low carbon sources of geothermal, hydro, wind, and solar power. Over half of this low carbon electricity came from geothermal energy, which Kenya has in abundance. So much in fact, that excess geothermal energy is released during the night when electricity demand is low. Installed geothermal capacity in Kenya could be increased by at least eightfold, which could open opportunities for scaling up green manufacturing capacity or exporting excess electricity to neighbouring countries. 

Renewable rollouts have substantially improved energy access. In 2013, around 28% of Kenyans had access to electricity. By 2020, this had risen to over 71%. This was achieved as the population grew by over seven million over the same period, while the rate of urbanisation continued to gather pace. According to the World Bank, barely one million Kenyans had electricity in 1990 [which, back then, was approximately just 5% of the population]. 

Ruto’s words, and Kenya’s actions, are timely due to the backdrop they are made against. Amid Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and the vacuum created in global energy markets, European leaders and multinational fossil fuel firms have launched a ‘dash for gas’ across Africa, where a raft of new oil and gas projects, as well as old ones, are being given the green light. At COP27, Ruto kicked back against the dash for gas, stating that “we [Kenya] have taken a position that as a country we are going green and we are well on course.”

Arriving in the land of the long white cloud, a first world country as New Zealand is, my expectations were that of where a first world country would be in terms of it's energy sector, expecting to see almost every house with renewable energy. But I hardly saw one solar panel. And I was saddened deeply, but that sadness was short lived when I realized that why was it necessary when they have so much other earth given power (on North Island) through all the geothermal activity. And so here is a nation that has embraced their earth given power to run the countries grid. #renewableenergy #earth #earthenergy #geothermal #electricity #newzealand #power #earthpower #earthenergy #earthfocus #zeropollution #pollution #pollutionfree #cleanenergy #storm #travelwithpurpose #traveltheworld #newideas #future #rotarua #geothermalpower (at Rotorua, New Zealand) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBh3m8hJxmG/?igshid=14u3z1tcft3u5

The Blue Lagoon is beautiful. I’m def glad we were there in the off season. I bet this place is a madhouse in the summer. . . It’s kinda interesting that the pools are basically the geothermal water they use to make power for the city of Reykjavík. #bluelagoon #icelandadventure #hotspringssoak #geothermalenergy #icelandviews #summerbreak #geothermalpower (at Blue Lagoon Iceland) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxxn3PPFsFV/?igshid=1ny2vqwsrcltj

Natural renewable resources are big business as the planet’s resources deplete. Earth’s ever-growing population will peak and begin declining later in the 21st century, but that does little good today as the need for resources escalates. The last four decades have been the greatest period of change in human history, during which time the population almost doubled from 4 billion in 1973 to 7.7 billion today, and the digital revolution transformed how we live and the resources (and energy) we require. Industry can radically improve the world by using naturally renewable resources in a sustainable way, but what’s renewable, and what’s not? ———————————————— 👉 Follow @renewable_energy_24 👉 Follow @renewable_energy_24 👉 Follow @renewable_energy_24 ———————————————— 📸：@renewable_energy_24 ————————————————#solarpanel #solarpanels #solarpower #solarenergy #solarfarm #farm #greenenergy #cleanenergy #greenhouse #renewable #renewables #renewableenergy #worldrenewableenergy #desert #renewableenergysources #solarcompany #windfarm #windpower #windenergy #cleanenergy #sustainableenergy #geothermalpower #hydroelectricity #solarenergy #solarpowered #wavepower #solarpowerhome #energy #modernenergy #solarindustry #resources #greenpeace (at Colo, Dinalupihan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B55BZ5KHg3T/?igshid=eiiw86x03onu

Geothermal-powered Italian Town Asks Why Populists Are Abandoning It

Italy’s Five Star Movement used to rave about towns like Montieri, a village in the verdant Tuscan foothills that burns little coal or natural gas. Instead, the local power plant harnesses steam rising naturally from hot springs deep underground to generate electricity. from Renewable Energy News RSS Feed https://www.renewableenergyworld.com/articles/2018/12/geothermalpowered-italian-town-asks-why-populists-are-abandoning-it.html

First work on another Age. These renders are first models of a geothermal power plant. It’s supposed to be based mostly on the launch bay for the Mazerunner in the Selenitic Age.

I had some fun designing the warning sign shown here, in a variation of the typical stick figure icon.
