Jinko has been lined up as equipment supplier after signing a deal to provide technical support to fellow Chinese group CJIC, which is developing the project.
The plant – which Jinko claims will be one of the biggest solar facilities in Africa – will cover 81 hectares.
The arid desert terrain around Garissa is highly suitable for solar generation, says Jinko.
"By co-operating with CJIC, we expect this project will provide JinkoSolar with future opportunities in Kenya's solar power plant industry," adds the PV supplier.
