Implemented project – Likoni®
Likoni, a division of Mombasa County, Kenya, located south-west of Mombasa Island. Although the area is heavily built-up with aging offices and apartments constructed centuries prior, the area also exhibits many examples of even older, more traditional Portuguese architecture. Likoni also has a high concentration of Bodaboda services. Likoni is inhibited with a huge number of lower class people who mostly ply the ferry to and fro Mombasa Island in search of their daily bread.
Likoni waterkiosk is located along the road, a few kilometres from the sea. Its supplies 20,000litres of hygiene drinking water with a 9.8kW solar array for the entire system.
