On March 12, 2026, the @su_serc hosted International clean-energy companies for the Energy Access Brokerage – Kenya 2026 initiative where they showcased innovative solutions like off-grid systems, biogas, and electric mobility to enhance energy access and sustainability.

The engagement continues today with visits to Raila Educational Centre and Chrisco Education Centre in Kibra, expanding the conversation on how schools can install and better manage solar energy. ☀️📚 @StrathU @SBSKenya #SolarForSchools #RenewableEnergy #SustainableFuture

“The Energy Timetabling App is a good program for the school,” says Daniel Wafula, Principal of Mashimoni Squatters School. The system makes it easy to track kilowatt-hour usage, plan activities, and generate reports for teachers. @StrathU #EnergyManagement #SolarForSchools

At the center of the workshop is the Energy Timetable App, an Africa SCENe innovation designed to help schools balance energy demand, organize activities, and manage revenue while maximizing the benefits of solar power. @StrathU #EnergyInnovation #SolarForSchools #GreenSkills

The upcoming solar installations will not only power classrooms but also support clean cooking facilities and income-generating activities, helping schools build more sustainable and resilient operations. 🌍⚡ @StrathU #SustainableSchools #SolarForSchools #RenewableEnergy

On a cool day in Nairobi, the Africa Sustainable Community Energy Networks (SCENe) team is at Mashimoni Squatters school, Kibra conducting a workshop on energy timetabling as preparations begin for installing solar PV systems to power the school. @StrathU #RenewableEnergy

📸 @StrathU #SolarForSchools #JustTransition #RenewableEnergy

Over three days the training will involve: ✅ Use the Prompt BI Impact App for testing & baseline data ✅ Explore Version 2 of the Energy Timetable App for energy balancing ✅ Advance plans for clean cooking, water pumping, laundry & IT learning. @StrathU #JustTransition

The workshops are part of a wider project of installing solar photovoltaic (SPV) systems in self-help schools such as Prosperity Self Help Group 👇🏾 Kangemi, unlocking sustainable income through community services powered by reliable electricity. 🌞 @StrathU #SolarForSchools

The University of Nottingham, in partnership with @su_serc , is delivering community-based workshops to researchers and teachers in four self help schools in Kangemi and Kibera on matters clean energy. #CleanEnergyAccess #CommunityImpact #SolarForSchools

Together, these conversations reaffirmed that #sustainable growth is built at the intersection of #innovation, #inclusion, and #evidence based action. Till 2027. Adios! @StrathU @ResearchCcg @CGlobalEquality

Researchers from @ResearchCcg network also shared their ongoing research in Kenya focusing on electricity demand, geospatial tools, data guidelines, county national energy system modelling and the role of natural gas in the future of power system. @StrathU #Greenskills
