Upon completion of the project in 2017, Google will acquire Vestas’ 12.5 percent stake in Africa’s largest wind park.

The Lake Turkana wind park is expected to have an annual power production of more than 1,400 GWh, which will provide around 15 per cent of Kenya’s electricity needs based on current generation capacity. Vestas will retain its equity stake in the project until its completion in 2017, upon which Google will formally join the Lake Turkana Wind Power investor group.
