Скачать или смотреть GIZ | Kenya: Energy Efficiency in the tea sector

While tea production is an important part of Kenya’s economy, the industry is responsible for high electricity and thermal energy consumption. In order to increase energy efficiency and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions while saving on energy costs, GIZ has partnered up with local and international tea organisations and companies (Ethical Tea Partnership, Kenyan Tea Development Agency, Mars Drinks and Yorkshire Tea). The partnership has implemented more than 65 audits in Kenyan tea factories since 2014, resolving in 13.5 million USD savings. Moreover, the project has protected 1.3 million trees from being cut down and saved 10.000 tons of CO². Watch the video to learn more about Kenya’s climate protection efforts in the tea sector.
