Kenya will next month cut power tariffs by up to a third for large businesses and manufacturers that shift their operations to late night hours.

The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) said it would from December 1 offer discounted tariffs for commercial and industrial power users who operate from 11pm to 5am, a window within which demand is low.
