Growing a viable ESCO industry in Kenya would help to improve the rate of implementation of energy efficiency projects. EnSo is working with Energy Pro Ltd to pilot its innovative ESCO-in-a-boxTM model in Kenya.
ESCO-in-a-box is an ‘operating system’ for energy services, incorporating all the systems, processes, and contract templates needed to deliver energy efficiency projects to SMEs, based on internationally established good practice.
ESCO-in-a-box offers a new business model that aims to unlock the wide range of financial, environmental, and social benefits provided by energy efficiency upgrades for SMEs that traditionally lack the time and resources to implement projects.
The aim of this project is to conduct a feasibility study that will adapt and apply the ESCO-in-a-box model for the Kenyan context, including a focus on specific sectors, development of a preliminary business case, and scope of work for a potential follow-on pilot project.
