Is Ketraco-Adani deal fair to Kenyans?
The experience we have with IPPs was that if you allow a private player to pass through all the costs to the tariff, you end up with expensive consumer prices.
The latest news between India's Adani and State-owned entity in charge of the national electricity transmission grid- Ketraco- is the publication on Wednesday of details of the terms of the deal between them.
For the first time, our electricity sector is witnessing the entry of new private players known as Independent Transmission Projects -popularly known by the acronym -ITPs. So, we are now going to have IPPs on the generation side of the business and ITPs on the transmission side.
