*BusinessDaily* - Two private companies have been commissioned to install solar panels in 117 schools and health centres in arid and semi arid regions in a move geared to reduce Kenya’s reliance on hydro-generated electricity and lower the cost of energy to poor communities.
Power Options Limited and Go Solar Limited have been awarded a Sh273.6 million tender to install, test and commission solar panels in schools and health centres that have never had power and which are to be used as test grounds for the eventual use of solar energy across the country.
The regions have sunshine through out the year and could be used as a test case to eventually roll out the use of solar power across the country.
