Lake Turkana Wind Power (LTWP) executive director Rizwan Fazal says the government’s move to put an indefinite freeze on signing new power purchase agreements (PPAs) will extend consumers’ pain in the hands of expensive power sources.
Mr Fazal wants the government to rethink the stand, arguing that new projects require at least five years before they can supply power and the freeze may therefore send the country back to thermal power plants in case of demand surge.
