Blackouts have also reduced (apart from last week of course). I hope this keeps up. although I noted a drop in mine, I attributed that to the daily blackouts lasting 12 hours. So even if we generate a million megawatts and leave transmission as it is then those bills will go up.  Kindly explain what you mean. I think he means that as we seek to generate more power, we should not forget to modernize and expand the transmission infrastructure (poles, cables, transformers, etc) i.e. the means with which the power so generated gets to us. I'm sure we recall a time when at the slightest sign of rain there'd always be a blackout. i always used to ask KP guys whether all countries that get more rain than Kenya are forever in blackout. If there is a blackout the Kenya power bill cannot go up but your power bill can if you put on your stand-by generator. The opposite of courage is not cowardice, it's conformity.
