Did you know that our wind turbines are serviced twice a year? This regular maintenance is crucial for keeping them healthy and efficient. In addition to scheduled servicing every six months, our turbines are equipped with sensors that alert us when parameters exceed normal operating ranges, ensuring any issues are addressed promptly. A typical service check-list includes: ✅ Cleaning all equipment ✅ Visual inspections of blades, towers, and nacelles ✅ Lubrication of bearings, gears, and moving parts ✅ Electrical system checks and testing ✅ Blade inspection and repair ✅ Structural integrity assessments ✅ Replacement of gearbox, hydraulic oil, and coolants as needed #WindPower #SustainableEnergy #LTWPMaintenance

At Lake Turkana Wind Power, we are proud to be a part of the clean energy movement in Kenya, East Africa, and beyond. By producing renewable energy, we are helping to power a healthier planet and reduce our dependence on traditional energy sources. This initiative brings numerous benefits, including improved air quality, new economic opportunities, and a more reliable energy supply. Today, as we observe the International Day of Clean Energy, join us in advocating for a cleaner future. #CleanEnergyDay #RenewableEnergy #ClimateAction #SustainableDevelopment #LTWP

Did you know that households in rural Kenya consume an average of 5 kWh of electricity per month? That’s like running a 60W lamp for a little over 83 hours. In Kenya, 1 kilowatt hour (kWh) is equivalent to one "unit" of power. So, every time you turn on that light switch, you’re using a little piece of energy magic. #WindEnergy #LTWPTurbines

Merry Christmas!! Today and every day of the year, you can always count on us to deliver clean and affordable wind power to Kenya’s national grid. Happy holidays from the LTWP family!! #LTWP #MerryChristmas

Did you know that although we refer to them as “wind turbines,” the turbine is only one of the three main parts? Part 1 - Turbines – It is the giant blades and the rotor (hub) that make up the “turbine”. As wind passes by, it makes the blades spin around. These blades have an aerodynamic curved shape to capture as much energy from the wind as possible. The blades are attached to a hub, which spins as the blades turn. As the rotor turns, it spins a drive shaft which is connected to a generator inside the housing at the top of the tower. Part 2 - Shaft – This is a gearbox which increases the speed of the spinning blades enough to power the electricity generator. Part 3 - Generator – It converts the mechanical energy of the moving wind into electrical energy, with the help of the spinning shaft. #LTWPTurbines #WindEnergy #HowTurbinesWork

A reason to celebrate!! 61 years after Kenya attained independence, the country is close to being a fully renewable energy country. We are honoured to be part of that success by contributing 12% wind power to Kenya’s national grid. Here’s to a sustainable and prosperous Kenya for generations to come. Happy Jamhuri Day! #JamhuriDay #RenewableEnergy #LTWP

Over 1,900 residents received essential eye and dental services. Kudos to our community liaison team for mobilising and the amazing medical team for working long hours to ensure all patients were screened and attended to. #WindsOfChange #LTWPCares #CommunityImpact

What a nice feeling to see happy faces after a successful 10-day medical camp in Loiyangalani that our NGO Winds of Change facilitated in partnership with @HealthYetu and @LionsSightfirst Eye Hospital. The team brought essential eye and dental care to over 1,900 residents and ensured even the most isolated populations received vital healthcare services. Kudos to our community liaison team for mobilising and the amazing medical team for working long hours to ensure every patient was screened and attended to. #WindsOfChange #LTWPCares #CommunityImpact

@otieno319 Indeed! This is our way of engaging the next generation especially in our locality about renewable energy. #LTWP
