  As of this August,   more than 90 percent   of safari tour operators have reported losing 75 percent or more of their annual business due to Covid-19. The pandemic has dealt a devastating blow to an industry that was booming just six months earlier. As country after country went into lockdown and emergency quarantine protocols were put in place, lodges had to  put a halt to safaris —not just because customers weren't making new reservations, but also because scheduled safaris were consistently canceled.  Tony Mobile Safari  in Botswana lost more than 150 expected customers.  Mankwe Wildlife Reserve  in South Africa saw every customer cancel.  Mofeg Travel and Tours  in Ghana normally operates seven tours annually; this year, it was  only able to have one .  And tourists aren't the only ones affected by the safari industry's pause.

Kenya’s largest dairy producer will buy power from a project featuring both ground-mounted and rooftop PV arrays. The selected developer will finance, own and operate the plant and will sell all of its output to New Kenya Cooperative Creameries under a power purchase agreement. “The financial proposal will be quoted in payments per kWh as well as any other cost,” the company said.  “Average consumption from the grid was 1,428,016 kWh in 2017 and 945,206 kWh in 2018.” The company currently covers around 69% of its energy needs with electricity from utility Kenya Power and Lighting Co.
