Investment in climate products in Kenya/WILLIAM WANYOIKE

Kenya's overall investment in climate products stands at 34.9 per cent.

Key investment areas include solar-powered equipment and tree planting, each accounting for 18.8 per cent.

Other significant sectors include water conservation at 6.8%, purchases of efficient cooking energy at 3.4 per cent, and biogas systems at a minimal 0.3 per cent.

Despite these investments, a special report by Auditor General Nancy Gathungu published in November 2025 highlights a critical governance gap.

The finance ministry lacks a formal system for tracking and reporting on climate finance.

This raises concerns about the transparency and management of these vital environmental funds.
