Diocese of Lodwar

St. Claire of Assisi Centre Kakuma Solar Installation


St. Clare of Assisi Training Institute and St. Francis of Assisi is a Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) institution offering courses in tailoring, hairdressing, plumbing, electrical installation, food and beverage production, ICT, accountancy, and teacher training. The institute is connected to the grid, but it is unreliable, and the existing solar system is non-functional. This is especially challenging during practical exams, which require a steady electricity supply. Alternative energy is needed, and a new solar project could transform the situation.

Who benefits

  • 148 students (148 boys and 0 girls)

What is done

  • Upgrading of existing systems with new hybrid photovoltaic system (12.92 kWp) and 15kWh battery storage.

When

  • Installation is planned for July 2026
