As Nairobi’s 4 million residents prepare to sleep, a team of men and women bid their families goodnight and head to a building on the edge of the city’s industrial district. It is here that “the largest green kitchen in Africa” comes to life.
The 3,000 sq metre (32,000 sq ft) “giga-kitchen’s” sustainable energy infrastructure includes the use of eco-friendly scrap wood briquettes to run two boilers to heat water and create the steam needed to cook 60,000 meals a day for Nairobi’s schoolchildren.
