The review, which takes effect Thursday (November 1), will also see small businesses consuming up to 100 kilowatt hours of power also pay a reduced charge per unit Sh10 per unit from Sh15.60.

The amended tariff structure review follows President Uhuru Kenyatta's directive earlier in the month following public outcry.

The present charge for those using less than 10 units is presently Sh12 while those consuming 11-100 are levied Sh15.80.

This excludes pass-through charges such as fuel cost charge, forex and value added tax.


BOOOOM!


Excellent. Demand elasticity for segments that actually exist i.e Domestic & Small Commercial. Big 4 manufacturing is a hoax!! Furthermore, less investment in new production.

A good development for consumers. Kenya Power can still make huge profits if it ends corruption and trims the huge perks paid to staff (I hear allowances beat the basic salaries smile ).

That is less than what they lose in corruption and inflated projects.

Big four was a nonstarter from the get go. Policy making is shockingly absurd.

Policy making is not absurd but what is expected with the crop of leadership we have (elect).

It's not really a loss; it's a wake up call to 'KPHellC' to start managing its costs efficiently and stem corruption at all levels.

And this has to start with the kind of systems it acquires to do business.

Why does it have to keep shutting down to adjust tariffs? Does it even ever think of placing customers at the centre of its business? Nope.

It should borrow a leaf from the likes of Safaricom, and banks too, which only have to shut down once in forever to upgrade systems. Shut downs are lost opportunities.
