Largest Kenyan solar plant but little benefit to locals.

Africa Climate Conversations.

The Raya residents in Garissa - North east of Kenya - say they gave up 85 hectares (210 acres) of their land to make way for the solar power plant - the largest grid-connected solar power plant in East and Central Africa launched in December 2019, but have so far seen few benefits in return.

These are the things I am exploring in this second episode of our two-part series on just transitions, made by Africa Climate Conversations in collaboration with China Dialogue.
