On December 8, 2019, Simbi Roses, a leading flower farm in Thika, Kenya, made a significant move towards reducing its environmental impact by launching a 150kWp solar power system in partnership with Ecoligo and GIZ Kenya.
The ground-mounted solar system is expected to save up to 144 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions per year, significantly reducing the farm's carbon footprint and power costs.
According to Executive Director Grace Nyachae, "With the new Solar PV system, Simbi Roses will be able to drastically reduce our overall carbon footprint and power costs."
Simbi Roses' commitment to sustainability is a positive step towards reducing Kenya's reliance on fossil fuels and mitigating the effects of climate change.
