In Africa, 700 million people have no access to electricity. And with progress, the energy needs of the continent will indeed increase gradually and surely. The best way to go now is to set up renewable energy plants around Africa, the continent where the sun shines bright and the winds blow strong. Kenya will soon play home to the $870 million Lake Turkana Wind Power (LTWP) project, the largest in Africa when completed, with construction scheduled to kick off in December this year. Built besides the Lake Turkana basin, this wind farm will boast a good 360 wind turbines, generating 300 megawatts of power. That\u2019s enough energy to power up thousands of homes and add-on to the Kenyan electricity power grid too.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nAn initiative that will bring light into the homes of the people of Africa, we\u2019d sure love seeing more such projects sprouting up across the continent!<br \/>\n[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/1743044\/coming-soon-a-massive-wind-farm-to-power-kenya?partner=rss&#038;utm_source=feedburner&#038;utm_medium=feed&#038;utm_campaign=Feed:+fastcompany\/headlines+(Fast+Company+Headlines)\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">FastCompany<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kenya will now raise its head up in pride, proudly showing off a wind farm of its own.
