The Lamu wind project in Baharini Village, near the town of Mpeketoni, is expected to a produce 90MW (120,000 hp) of electrical power in the Mpeketoni Division at the Kenyan coast in Lamu County. The planned wind station will sit on 3,200 acres (5.0 sq mi) of land and will consist of 38 wind turbines. The power generated will be evacuated via a new 323 kilometers (201 mi), 220 kV power line from Lamu to Rabai, where it will be integrated into the national grid for use across the country.
