Kenya Power KPLC Electricity Bills Are Going Up Again.

EPRA has added new charges electricity consumers will pay an additional KSh 4.70 per unit in August, made up of a KS h3.51 fuel cost adjustment and a KSh1.18 foreign exchange adjustment.

A household using 100 units will pay about KSh 470 more before other charges.

Greek multinational Amaco Energy Group has announced plans to construct a $1.5 billion (KSh 194 billion) artificial intelligence data center in Mombasa, Kenya.

The ambitious mega-project seeks to tap into East Africa's rapidly increasing demand for AI, cloud computing, and digital finance infrastructure.

Key Highlights of the Project

Independent Power Supply: The facility will completely bypass Kenya’s national electricity grid.

It will feature its own offshore power generation system.

The "Hercules" Technology: To avoid straining local infrastructure, Amaco Energy Group will utilize an offshore liquefied natural gas (LNG)-powered electricity and cooling framework dubbed Hercules.

Potential Grid Support: The proprietary power system could eventually generate surplus electricity to support Kenya’s broader energy grid.

Current Status: Amaco CEO Theodore Theodoropoulos is currently in Kenya for regulatory and developmental talks with government officials to finalize project approvals.

Strategic Context for Kenya

Data centers designed for training large language models require massive amounts of power and heavy-duty water cooling.

A similar tech project a planned $1 billion Microsoft and G42 data center in Olkaria stalled previously after its power requirements escalated to 1,000 megawatts, creating friction over national grid capacity.

By leveraging self-sufficient offshore LNG generation, Amaco Energy Group aims to sidestep these power grid bottlenecks entirely.
