The Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) has announced that Nairobi County will experience reduced power outages in the near future. This will be after the firm constructs a new substation at Mariakani that can withstand the more than 2000 megawatts of power produced.
“The endeavour to end power outages in the city will be accomplished through a 400/220kV substation at Mariakani, whose construction contract was awarded to CAMCE China by Ketraco on January 26, 2015,” said Ketraco Managing Director Fernandes Barasa yesterday. The substation has been funded by the African Development Bank at a cost of Sh2.7 billion.
