Energy Cabinet Secretary Opiyo Wandayi has unveiled key proposals aimed at reducing the cost of electricity and expanding access to millions of households across the country.
In the recently published Draft National Energy Policy, Wandayi announced that the government will review electricity tariffs every three years to ensure predictability, timely cost recovery, and fair, cost-reflective pricing for consumers.
Additionally, the policy proposes the establishment of a Competitive Electricity Retail Market with private sector participation.
This initiative will facilitate the creation of downstream Electricity Supply Companies (ESCOs), allowing private sector players to actively participate in electricity distribution and retail.
