Kenya’s thinning electricity reserves have turned the focus on a ban on new power purchase agreements (PPAs) by former President Uhuru Kenyatta three years ago, which led to the cancellation of 92 power projects that were at early stages of development.
The country is under renewed pressure to raise its power output amid low reserves. Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi last week said Kenya experienced load-shedding in August on low power reserves.
