The heavy El Niño rains have had little impact on power bills amid expectations that rising water levels would increase injection of cheaper hydro-power to the nation grid.
Data from the Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) indicates that the fuel adjustment levy, which is linked to the amount of power generated from expensive diesel, for post-paid bills to be settled next month is at Sh2.31 per kilowatt hour (kWh) having remained unchanged at Sh2.51 over the past two months.
