The partnership, which is in line with the company’s losses reduction strategy, will see the power utility firm recover at least Sh2 billion in the three informal settlements through the collaboration. The firm will also open offices in Mathare, Mukuru and Kibera to help address customer issues such as power outages, bill queries, and new connections among others. “Kenya Power will continue to carry out network maintenance and ensure that all customers in informal settlements are properly metered. We are confident that through this collaborative effort, we will achieve our goal to provide quality, reliable and safe power in informal settlements,” added Ngugi. Kenya Power posted a profit before tax of Sh332 million for the half-year period ended December 31, 2020.
