Kenya Power on Wednesday hosted a six-member delegation from Ghana’s Public Utilities Regulatory Commission (PURC), the economic regulator for electricity and water utilities, for a high-level exchange focused on the future of energy and electric mobility in Africa.
The PURC delegation’s visit provided a valuable platform to benchmark regulatory and tariff frameworks, while also enabling the sharing of practical insights drawn from Kenya’s evolving electric vehicle (EV) landscape.
Discussions covered EV grid integration, infrastructure planning, data-driven energy management, and the policy considerations necessary to scale adoption sustainably.
This engagement underscores the growing importance of cross-border collaboration in shaping Africa’s clean energy future.
By exchanging knowledge and aligning approaches, both Kenya and Ghana are taking meaningful steps toward building resilient, efficient, and low-carbon transport systems that will define the continent’s next phase of growth.
As Kenya accelerates its transition toward sustainable transport, Kenya Power is playing a central role in enabling the growth of the EV ecosystem.
This includes advancing EV-friendly tariff structures, strengthening grid readiness to support increased electricity demand, investing in distribution network planning, and deploying smart metering and billing solutions tailored to EV users.
The utility is also actively supporting the development and management of EV fleets, while collaborating with public- and private-sector partners to expand charging infrastructure across the country.
