The Emoru Power-to-X project, proposed by Galetech Energy Developments, aims to produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) in Kenya by harnessing renewable energy sources. It combines wind, solar, and geothermal energy to support SAF production at a large scale.
The Emoru Power-to-X project positions Kenya as a leader in renewable energy and sustainable fuel production, providing a scalable solution to decarbonize the aviation industry.
Key Features
- Wind Farm: Up to 2 GW capacity at Moru Ang’akirim, developed in three phases
- Solar Park: Up to 1 GW solar PV park at Siguta
- Geothermal Plant: 140 MW base load power, providing electricity and waste heat for carbon capture
- Production Capacity: The SAF plant will be capable of producing up to 500 million liters of SAF annually, using 2 GW of electrolyzer capacity and a Direct Air Capture (DAC) plant to capture carbon dioxide
