NextBillion - An Initiative of the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan

Construction has begun on a $130.5 million re-filling plant for liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and 30,000-ton storage facility at the Dongo Kundu Special Economic Zone in Kenya.

Construction started on 24 February by Tanzania-based LPG distributor, Taifa Gas, and will service both Tanzania and Kenya in a bid to make clean cooking gas more affordable and accessible for both East African countries.
