Resumen
Descripción
The Government of Kenya adopted in 2004
an Economic Recovery Strategy for Wealth and Employment
Creation (ERSWEC), which recognizes three main pillars for
economy recovery namely: (i) strengthening economic growth;
(ii) enhancing equity and reducing poverty; and (iii)
improving governance. The ERSWEC reiterates that the
achievement of the three pillars is dependent on adequate
and reliable access to least-cost energy. Since agriculture
continues to be the mainstay of Kenya's economy,
ensuring adequate access to electricity in rural areas is an
important component to achieving the objectives of the
ERSWEC. This is confirmed by investigations made by this
study regarding specific energy needs for the different
sectors of productive and social activities in the rural
areas, for agriculture, livestock, fishery, tea and coffee
cooperatives, telecommunications, water pumping and health
and education services.The Government of Kenya has adopted a
National Energy formulated in the Sessional Paper No 4 of
2004 consistent with the ERSWEC, which set double target of
a 20% access rate to electricity in rural areas and 40% in 2020.
