Kenya Power will take up an extra 200 megawatts (MW) of power in December 2026 under a power purchasing agreement (PPA) with Ethiopia to plug a gap in supply.
Kenya Power currently has a running 20-year PPA with the Ethiopian Electric Power (EEP), which was signed in 2022, allowing for the supply of 200MW of electricity priced at $0.65 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), or approximately Sh84.03 per kWh.
