The executive is lobbying Parliament to lift the freeze on new Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), allowing Kenya Power to onboard new electricity plants and avert a looming crisis.
Energy Principal Secretary Alex Wachira on Wednesday said the ministry and the National Assembly committee of Energy have already agreed to lift the moratorium. The committee will next week table a report for adoption by MPs.
