Investors domiciled in the 15 special economic zones will from this Saturday start paying a special tariff of Sh10 per kilowatt hour as the energy regulator moves to harmonise rates and entice more firms to set up in the tax-free regions.

These are part of the new electricity tariffs that the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (Epra) approved last week.
