Kenya Power has injected Sh7.1 million to enhance lighting at the WRC Safari Rally Service Park and Spectator Village ahead of the 2025 event.
The company announced the sponsorship on Monday, reaffirming its commitment to supporting local sports and ensuring an electrified experience for rally enthusiasts.
The Safari Rally is scheduled to take place from Thursday, March 20, to Sunday, March 23, 2025.
The sponsorship will be used to install floodlights at the Safari Rally Service Park and boost power supply at the Morendat Safari Rally Village in Naivasha. This will improve accessibility to electricity for both participants and spectators.
Kenya Power CEO Joseph Siror emphasized the company’s role in ensuring a seamless experience for fans and organizers.
“Our participation in the WRC Safari Rally is a testament to our belief in the power of sports to unite people and drive positive change. We are proud to be associated with WRC Safari Rally Kenya 2025 as the official lighting partner. Our goal is to provide adequate electricity to power the service center and enable rally fans to charge their phones and other devices so they do not miss any iconic moments,” said Siror.
The rally’s service center is based at the Wildlife Research and Training Institute (WRTI) in Naivasha. In addition to lighting the rally, Kenya Power will set up an exhibition pavilion at the Morendat Spectator Village to showcase its latest innovations in electric mobility.
“We believe in the power of sports to unite people and drive positive change. Through our exhibition at the Safari Rally Village, we aim to educate the public on the benefits of e-cooking and e-mobility while addressing their energy needs. This is an opportunity to promote Kenya’s transition to clean energy,” Siror added.
