The Modern Energy Cooking Services (MECS) programme has injected Sh97 million ($750,000) into three Kenyan clean cooking ventures: Ecobora, PowerUp, and Sun-Power Box.

• The investment aims to scale affordable electric cooking technologies and expand access to clean energy for institutions, schools, and households.
• Key organizations involved include MECS, CLASP, and the beneficiating companies.
• This funding addresses a critical financing gap for early-stage clean cooking ventures in Kenya, where 37 million people still rely on biomass fuels.
