The items that were adjusted to constitute the price hike very little goes to Kenya power.
Fuel energy charge goes to thermal generators.
Forex is on their loan repayments as a result of the weakening dollar



if you noticed , in the last 9 months, the monthly passthrough charges like Fuel Cost Charge, Forex and inflation adjustment have remained fixed. i deally they vary month to month...but the Government Policy of suppressing the cost of power meant that KPLC was paying to Power Generators more than it was recovering from the customers, leading to accummulation of over Ksh 10.4 Billion in unrecovered passthrough charges. so currently, this is being recovered , hence the spike in the passthrough charges. its to be recovered in around 6 monthly instalments

Does anyone have an idea of how much KPLC will save in commissions after terminating contracts for third party token vendors?

Isn't the government compensating KPLC for the difference of ksh.10.4bn in unrecovered passthrough charges

NO. The government is only compensating the Base tariff reduction effected in January , not the passthrough.

Does it mean the pass through charges will be reviewed every 6 months?

From late KNBS Leading Economic Indicators numbers:

May & June 2022 had lowest thermal contribution to generated power in last 12 months at 79 Gwh and 81 Gwh yet FuelCostCharge still remained at KES 4.63. This is 1/3 of 224 Gwh generated in Feb 2022 from thermal and yet FCC remained at KES 4.63 with September 2022 spike of FCC to KES 6.79.
In May 2022 Geothermal generated units at all time high of ~522 Gwh explaining the dip in thermal production.

No, 6 months is the period for recovery of the accumulated passthroughs charges, on top of the normal month to month charges. once the recovery is done, then its the normal month to month charges that constinues. nobody hassaid that passthrough charges will be reviewed after 6 months.

Kenya Power has announced plans to phase out petrol and diesel-powered vehicles and motorbikes from its fleet in favour of electric ones as the country’s shift to clean transport gathers momentum.

The State-owned power utility has set aside Sh40 million this financial year to purchase three electric vehicles that include two pick-ups and one four-wheel drive on a pilot basis.
