The High Court has ordered State-owned Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) to pay Sh220 million to a French contractor over the stalled Loiyangalani–Suswa wind power transmission line project.

At the same time, the court rejected the company, Enterprise Generale Malta Forest S.A.S’s claim for Sh500 million compensation in idle time and prolongation costs, ruling that the contractor failed to strictly prove the losses despite citing delays, site disruptions, and non-payment.
