ADICA Provides Training for World Bank Energy Sector Recovery Project in Kenya
The World Bank Energy Sector Recovery Project in Kenya is designed to:
• Improve the quality and reliability of electricity supply in the power system;
• Improve corporate governance and accountability in the power industry;
• Establish a strong, autonomous sector regulatory regime with adequate institutional capability to create an enabling environment for meaningful private sector participation;
• Enhance capacity in energy policy formulation and analysis; and
• Institute pricing regime to promote efficiency and viability. |
Under this project, during September to October 2005, ADICA provided training on Load Forecasting and Generation Expansion Planning for staff of the Ministry of Energy, the generation company - KENGEN, the transmission and distribution company - KPLC, and the Energy Regulatory Board in Kenya.
Energy planners in Kenya were trained on how to apply the MAED, WASP and VALORAGUA software, utilized in over 70 countries, in an integrated manner to develop long-term forecasts of energy and electricity demand, optimize the operation of hydro projects, and determine the least-cost generation expansion strategy for the country.Course participants were also guided through the development of a reference case for each model using country specific data from Kenya.
