Project

As part of the feasibility studies for the Olkaria II geothermal power plant and the Olkaria wellhead units, ELC delivered a technical workshop and capacity-building programme for KenGen in Naivasha, Kenya.
The programme brought together ELC’s multidisciplinary team and KenGen’s engineering, finance and environmental staff to present the key findings of the studies and provide a comprehensive overview of the technical, environmental and economic aspects of the projects.
The workshop combined technical presentations with live demonstrations and hands-on sessions, promoting practical knowledge transfer, open technical exchange and a shared understanding of the methodologies and tools applied throughout the feasibility studies.

Client
