Abstract

The work presented contains documents that were used in the development of MAED Kenyan Case and the training done to the National and Sub-national energy planning teams based on the same MAED, Energy Demand Forecast Results-Kenyan Case Input data, Sector Consumption Data and Cross Check data MAED Training Presentations on the Kenyan based Case The model development is funded by The RE-INTEGRATE project which has received funding from the European Union's Horizon Europe Research and Innovation Programme under grant agreement No 101118217, and the Training Workshop has been funded by Climate Compatible Growth, a UK Aid-funded project which aims to support investment in sustainable energy and transport systems to meet development priorities in the Global South. Insitutions involved in co-creation of the model and the training include, Ministry of Energy and Petroleum, Council of Govoners, Kenya Power, Energy Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA), Kenya Electricity Generating Company PLC (KenGen), Kenya Electricity Transmission Company Limited (KETRACO), Rural Electrification and Renewable Energy Corporation (REREC), Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) and Strathmore University
