>For context, Kenya's total installed electricity capacity sits between 3,000 and 3,100 megawatts

That can't possibly be true. In true dollars Kenya's gdp is 140B USD. You can generate that much products and services on 4GW. That is a single big powerplant. I suspect the author missed a zero somewhere.

Also if they need so much power, why UAE is not also building powerplants? It is not as if Kenya will stop growing.

Doesn't make much sense.
