From the KPLC twitter site (i dont know who updates it)

Quote:
"KPLC has installed 1,055,694 energy saving bulbs countrywide and in the process has reduced peak demand by 60MW (installation is ongoing)"

End.

We do realize of cause that our economy in Kenya lies along one road --- whichever way you view it :

Mombasa --> Nairobi ---> Nakuru ----> Eldoret / Kisumu

And from what I see, the two towns on the extreme end are right next to water bodies. Why cant we decentralize production of electricity; because it seems that majority of country relies on the Tana river - 7 folks - and when there is no rain... we know the story.

Would it be cheaper for peripheral towns like Eldoret and Kisumu to source their electricity from Uganda ?

Can a town like Nyahururu harness the water fall and produce its own power ?



(just a few thots)
