KPLC PRESS RELEASE - IMPLEMENTATION OF POWER BILL REDUCTION

24th Nairobi, Thursday, 16th December, 2021…His Excellency President Uhuru Kenyatta, in his speech marking Kenya’s 57th Jamhuri day, noted that as a result of the government pledge to bring down the cost of power by 30 per cent “the reduction of the cost of electricity will be implemented in two tranches of 15 per cent each; with the first 15 per cent, which will be achieved through initial actions focusing on system and commercial losses being reflected in the December bills, and a further 15 per cent reduction in the first quarter of 2022.”

In fulfilment of this pledge, Kenya Power wishes to inform its customers that the first 15 per cent reduction in the cost of power will be implemented on power consumption in the month of December, 2021. This will be reflected in power bills covering that period, which, as is normal practice, will be sent to consumers in the following month, in this case January 2022.

Kenya Power remains committed to working with all stakeholders to provide clean, affordable, reliable and accessible power to all Kenyans which will undoubtedly bring down the cost of living and improve Kenya’s competitiveness as the region’s industrial hub.
