Thrilled to be out in the Olkaria Geothermal Fields, where steam meets innovation, at a recent visit into the leading power generating company in East Africa and one of the Largest Geothermal Power plants in Africa. Standing amid the power stations that drive Kenya’s renewable energy journey, I'm reminded of why automation is so much more than just tech. It’s the key to efficiency, sustainability, and cleaner energy. Seeing firsthand how control systems keep these massive operations running smoothly is incredible! When you visit KenGen Kenya you expect to meet hundreds of engineers and technicians in a single plant per shift, right? That's not the case here. When you first enter the gate you'd even think the place is empty. Seeing fully automated plant first hand inspires me so much to keep pursuing my automation career. Here’s to engineering a sustainable future one watt at a time🔋🌍 #EngineeringInTheField #GeothermalPower #AutomationForBetter #SustainableEnergy #kengen #geothermalenergy #greenenergy #renewableenergy
