Utility firm Kenya Power will in January introduce smart meters for its customers in selected Nairobi estates and small businesses in the Central Business District (CBD) as it deepens the use of technology to improve efficiency in its operations.

The power distributor on Wednesday said that it had set aside Sh150 million to finance the two-year pilot project in which 5,000 customers, whose monthly power bills exceed Sh100,000, will be furnished with the smart meters.
