Terrible news for Kenya Power shareholders. Another PPA to milk the cash cow a.k.a Kenya Power dry.


More terrible for KENGEN than KPLC. Integration of new intermittent sources of generation like wind and solar means curtailment of base loads like Geothermal and Hydro

The spinning reserve for the new intermittent wind power will still be Hydro cheapest and if there is a drought impacting Hydro then geothermal would be the next spinning reserve. Methinks KenGen still gains from the intermittent sources.

Curtailed energy from kengen geothermal fields in olkaria was almost 345 million kwh last FY... do the maths. They harm KenGen more...and right now there is no compensation mechanism for ancillary services that kengen gives in grid stabilization and spinning reserve due to intermittent generation in the grid.

10% dividend payout ratio. Kengen just keeps decreasing its dividend with rising earnings.

They got a tax gain as a result of Olkaria V.
The tax gain isn't distributable as dividend.
Calculate the payout ratio without the tax gain.

FY17 and FY18 we got a dividend of 0.40 then suddenly down to 0.25 in FY19 and 0.30 in FY20. Excluding the tax gains, I would expect them at least to maintain the dividend since their earnings are relatively the same over the years if not higher.

The operations in Ethiopia will give them a cushion since revenues in Kenya have stagnated and Kenya power cashflow issues

What % of total revenues from are expected from Ethiopia?

For the FY2019/2020 Ethiopia project generated Ksh.440 million in revenues.
