Kenya Power will spend Sh10 billion in the year starting July to revamp its ageing transmission network in a bid to increase reliability and stem the outflow of customers shifting to alternative power sources.

The firm’s CEO Joseph Siror said Wednesday that the money will be used to build new power lines and substations, helping the utility meet the growing customer numbers and with increased reliability.
