Power Up
Power Up is a coalition bringing together businesses, civil society, financiers, development partners and government to expand clean cooking and productive uses of renewable energy across Kenya. We are working towards systemic change that expands access to clean energy, supports livelihoods and increases the uptake of efficient cookstoves that reduce fuel costs and harmful indoor air pollution.
Power Up Calls For:
Policy Change
We campaign for stronger national and county-level policies that prioritise clean cooking and productive use of renewable energy solutions where they are needed most.
Increased Financing Where It Matters Most
We advocate for public and private finance to reach businesses, households and underserved communities so that they can benefit from clean cooking and productive use of renewable energy solutions and advance Kenya’s climate and development goals.
Coordinated Action
We bring together businesses, civil society, public institutions and sector leaders to build momentum, align voices, and drive practical, coordinated, and systemic change.
Our focus: Turning Kenya’s clean energy ambition into reality
We are campaigning to ensure that national commitments and investment decisions translate into wider access to clean cooking and renewable energy across Kenya. This can improve livelihoods, strengthen local economies and support the country’s climate goals. A key part of this is increasing finance through local banks, SACCOs and microfinance institutions, which are well positioned to help scale clean cooking and productive use of renewable energy solutions across Kenya’s 47 countries.
