@ carygo,

addition of 5MW to the national gid is to start with not bad,but this amount is insignificant compared to the current power requirements...I wish kengen could install these windmills in small towns whose aggregate power requirements rarely go beyond 2MW....it would ease the pressure from the big urban centres.

@ mwenza,

it is interesting to note how predictable the services (electricity and water) provision in kenya can be...the two are actually intertwined....no water no electricity and no electricity no water...it will take eons at the current trend to separate these two...

@ all,

the power rationing is early signs of an energy crunch or power crisis...sooner or later the innevitable will happen....manufacturing companies drawing shift personnel and operating at 50% of the installed capacity and retrenching at last. then the cost of power will go up despite the shortage.

Well done ladies and gentlemen. This post is absolutely powerful. Again,well done. I was beggining to lose hope in SK.

HOWEVER,@ Ikonini,I take great exception to your post. To post a joke,no matter how funny,is truly an insult to the suffering we are going through. I therefore rule you out of order and place a black mark on you. Three marks and I shall ask SKerians to give you a black out. Like @Leona and other SKerians point out,we have got to start somewhere in self regulation.

@aemathenge

I dont see what beef you have with Ikonini's joke. Surely you now want SK to ban jokes? Laughter must just be the thing that Kenyans in the dark,with no water or food need.
