Project Objective
Creating an enabling environment for the uptake of bioethanol as a clean cooking solution in Kenya to address the climate crisis while unlocking private sector investment.
Tasks
Engagement lead tasked with convening government and non-government working groups of relevant ministries, the private sector, and development partners to co-create the Bioethanol Masterplan.
Overseeing the milestones of the management consultants providing the technical lead on the Masterplan.
Synthesizing key messages of the Masterplan to communicate key messages to target audiences easily.
Publicizing the Masterplan in several relevant forums.
Outputs
A Bioethanol Masterplan for Clean Cooking in Kenya.
Several convenings with key stakeholders, including senior government officials, private sector, development aid, and civil society groups
Easy-to-use infographics synthesizing key messages of the Masterplan targeted at government, private sector, and development aid
Outcomes
Successfully lobbying for the government's ownership and formal adoption of the Bioethanol Masterplan through the Ministry of Energy.
Kickstarting conversations with development partners to invest resources in the growth of the bioethanol sector in Kenya.
This is a classic case of how enabling policy environments can impact lives. More than one million households in Kenya enjoy clean cooking with bioethanol because an enabling policy environment encourages affordability through tax incentives to the private sector.
