Have you seen the advert Kenya power is the proud sponsor of ...very strange at these times when they have no money? Me think KPLC does not need to advertise their product is in very high demand and they are unable to supply... Why not concentrate on building capacity

This guys are always advertising, you even wonder who they are competing with.

That is how you kula money...you give overpriced advertising contracts to friends and eat from there. There's no need to advertise if you're a monopoly and providing an essential service.

I'm sure that advertising budget is huge, it must be paying for lots of mistresses!

In other countries, green energy is considered expensive simply because of the efficiency of the electricity suppliers.

I see a business study being conducted on kenya parafin. How a monopoly lost to solar and green energy.

I'm I the only one who's 100% sure that my dream home will never be connected to them?

You are not alone here.....solar energy and wind generators seem viable options now.

Reminds me of the adverts by KEMSA that were all over the media just a few months ago.

Maybe KPLC will get a more focused MD since the current one is leaving for a higher position.

BBI will solve it :)

!@#$%^& Kenya Power always on the news for the wrong reasons.

DN 18.06.2013 wrote:
The economic report adversely mentioned Kenya Power, which is said to be capturing only 85 per cent of potential revenue in sale of electricity.

According to the Kenya Public Expenditure Review of 2010, the State-owned electricity seller suffers transmission and distribution losses of 18 per cent compared to the acceptable practice of 10 per cent.

Consequently, electricity connection rates remain high at an average of Sh35,000, which is above the budget for most rural households, leading to a connection rate of less than 30 per cent in the entire country.

Kenya Power To Give Free Bulbs

Kenya power will embark on the second phase of the free energy saving bulbs circulation in select households later this year in a bid to reduce the demand for electricity. The firm says it will spend 1.3 billion shillings to replace ordinary lamps with fluorescent lamps for at least one million customers. A maximum of four bulbs will be given per customer.


Instead of focusing on reducing demand they ought to focus on increasing supply!


I thought that onus falls on KenGen and that other geothermal company, what's its name, Geothermal Development Corporation?

Right now demand is higher than supply
