To address the energy demand further and in complimenting the National Government’s efforts, the County Government of Kakamega is set to partner with Hydrobox, a Belgian energy generation company, to produce eco-friendly and affordable power. The company, together with the County, is currently conducting a feasibility study which will be followed by the official signing of an MoU.
