Turkana County is Kenya's largest county by area (77,000 sq km) and is in the middle of a resource discovery era — oil deposits in Lokichar basin, wind energy at Lake Turkana, and a growing fishing industry on Africa's largest desert lake make Turkana an emerging investment frontier.
The Turkana Oil Project (operated by TotalEnergies and CEPSA) is developing the Lokichar basin oil fields. The LTWP (Lake Turkana Wind Power) generates over 300 MW of clean energy. Traditional pastoralism remains the livelihood foundation for most of the county's 900,000+ residents.
Oil service contractors, renewable energy firms, and LAPSSET infrastructure suppliers working in Turkana can find procurement partners through ProvenGrid.
