The Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen) has suffered a blow after the court quashed a Sh1.13 billion tender for the connection of three make-up wells to its Olkaria geothermal power plant in Naivasha.
The Court of Appeal nullified the tender stating that the Public Procurement Administrative Review Board and the High Court erred by failing to appreciate that the tender evaluation committee violated the procurement laws by awarding the contract, yet the winning bidder failed to comply with a mandatory bid term.
