@littledove
No competition to kengen;this is for the production of the solar power panels to be used in offshoot locations or places not very near the electric grid.

noted@Ericsson, if that the case kplc is the loser, because if the panels are affordable even those near electric grid will opt for solar

KPLC is in the business of selling electricity to the end-user. Unless the Solar Farm guys can set up the 'last-mile' (to the consumer) then KPLC remains their preferred buyer.

There are signs of a "U"Turn to maybe goodness. This may leverage at 18 till Mauritian govt sells off their candy if they win their court cases on R/Dawats

They can't buy what is not sold. The solar consumers may not be paying KP anything unless the supplier first sells to KP. For those near the grid, the mode will probably be that they use all they want before selling surplus to KP. Which means fewer end-users or less units sold by KP.

True but which (large) consumers are near these huge projects?

Kenya's largest consumers are in Nairobi and Central. This is unlikely to change for the next 10 years but will over 20 years.

Machakos is coming up but not (significantly) for another 5 years.
LAPSSET not 5-10 years.
Galana irrigation scheme not for 5-10 years.

My point is that whereas these power projects will be ready in 3-10 years, will the (nearby & significant) off take customers be ready or will KPLC be the one to take the power?

KPLC promised to have 1 million new connections annually. I do pray that Wanjiku stops using charcoal and wood for cooking as power becomes cheaper (economies of scale).

In any case, we are looking at pure organic growth, which takes sometime. Mr. Buffet would like this.

Britam will still record a positive HY2015 growth of over 8 to 20%.
