Kenya's Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) has released its latest Energy and Petroleum Statistics report, which shows that renewable energy sources accounted for 84.93% of the total energy generated in the first half of the Financial Year 2023/2024. The report also highlights the successful operation of the Sossian geothermal power plant, which added 35MW to the power supply in the Central Rift region.

There are some interesting takeaways from the latest Energy and Petroleum Statistics report from Kenya’s Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority . The report covers the first half of the Financial Year 2023/2024, which is the period from July 2023 to December 2023.

The Kenya-Ethiopia 200MW HVDC link also started full commercial operations during this period on 1st December 2023. This link also brings in some nice clean hydro capacity from Ethiopia’s vast hydropower recourses. The new e-mobility tariff has been set at 16 Kenya shillings for energy consumption up to 15,000kWh during peak periods and 8 Kenya Shillings per kWh during off peak periods also up to 15,000kWh. 16 Kenya shillings works out to 13 US cents/kWh at the current exchange rate. This is before taxes and other charges are added to the final cost the consumers will pay. This also means the tariff under the TOU program will be just 6 US cents/kWh.
