This report presents Kenya’s first voyage-based national maritime greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions inventory, developed under Task 1 of the Leading Effective Afrocentric Participation (LEAP) Project. Using Automatic Identification System (AIS)-derived vessel activity data and methodology aligned with the Fourth IMO GHG Study, the inventory quantifies energy demand and CO₂ emissions from both international and domestic shipping activity at Kenyan ports for the reference year. The findings are intended to strengthen Kenya’s evidence base for IMO negotiations and inform the development of a nationally appropriate maritime decarbonisation strategy.
