The weakening shilling has set homes and businesses up for higher electricity prices this month after the forex levy in power bills hit a 15-month high.
The Energy Regulatory Commission (ERC) raised the forex levy to Sh1.28 per kilowatt hour (kWh) of electricity consumed in February from Sh0.84 per unit a month earlier.
