Technical document/report
Description:
Climate Technology Centre and Network (CTCN) implemented a technical assistance (TA) supporting Kenya to determine the technical and financial feasibility of low-cost green technologies for improved water services in Northern Kenya and peri-urban areas. Direct access to this case study: https://www.ctc-n.org/technical-assistance/projects/catalysing-low-cost-green-technologies-sustainable-water-service
Outcome:
In collaboration with the NDE of Kenya and the TA implementors (UNEP-DTU Partnership and Green Technology Center), the CTCN TA provided (1) prioritisation of three green water technologies in targeted areas, (2) a pre-feasibility study to determine the technical, economic and social feasibility of the green water technologies for the targeted areas, (3) identification of potential private sector actors and Public Private Partnership (PPP) within the water sector for the deployment of the green water technologies, (4) development of a PPP business model and (5) development of a draft concept note for up-scaling financial investment. It was expected that the TA would have a significant impact on the sustainable development goals in Kenya through improved water access to underserved communities.
