What does the 14% Inflation adjustment mean over a 20 year period?Is this a compound or simple interest adjustment every year? That would make the Wind Power more expensive than thermal. I think ERC/GoK/KPLC send rookies to negotiate these PPAs. 14%? Who comes up with these numbers? Another thing can KPLC choose not to buy the power? https://www.linkedin.com...ity:6460082376977502208

Where are all those crazy persons who keep saying the Kenyan economy is in the doldrums? The line is done! Yet another game changer. 2300+ MW installed capacity. KETRACO building high voltage lines all across the country. I like his quote; "We are a generation that is making history..if everyone plays their role..then you can be sure we can achieve (seeming) impossibilities." God bless red hawwtt Kenya!

Great job highlighting this project some months back and following up, Jeff! This is what real journalism is all about. Wish all Kenyan journalists did such stories instead of the usual political obsessions.
