KPLC: Planned Maintenance & Blackouts

Here are the scheduled power outages for Monday, November 3, 2025, as announced by Kenya Power — plus what you need to know if you’re in the affected areas.


⚡ Nairobi Region: Planned Maintenance Outage

Kenya Power has confirmed a planned power interruption in parts of Nairobi County today due to essential maintenance work.

  • Time: 9:00 a.m. → 5:00 p.m.

  • Areas affected: Along Arwings Kodhek Road and nearby locations including Ralph Bunche Road, Nelson Awour Centre, Nairobi Hospital, Landmark Plaza, Lee Funeral Home, Upper Hill Medical Hospital, University of Nairobi Dental School.

  • Also impacted are parts of Ngong Avenues (2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th), The Chancery Building, Bishop’s Road, Sarova Panafric Hotel, Fairview Hotel, and adjacent customers.

Kenya Power emphasized that this outage is part of ongoing efforts to upgrade the electricity distribution network in high-demand urban zones.

Customers in the affected zone — especially businesses, hospitals, offices, schools, and residents — are advised to plan ahead and treat all equipment as live after power is restored.


🔧 Why It’s Happening & What to Do

  • The outage is listed as planned maintenance, which means Kenya Power intends to inspect, repair or upgrade infrastructure rather than responding to an emergency failure.

  • Areas such as Upper Hill and Kilimani are among those likely impacted thanks to their proximity to Arwings Kodhek Road and adjacent arteries.

What You Can Do

  • Avoid scheduling tasks that need electricity (computing, printing, refrigeration) between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m.

  • Unplug sensitive electronics ahead of scheduled downtime.

  • If you rely on continuous power (for medical equipment, servers, phones, etc.), arrange a backup supply (generator, battery bank, or UPS).

  • Stay updated with Kenya Power announcements — sometimes announced outages shift slightly due to weather or technical delays.

KPLC: Planned Maintenance & Blackouts

Kenya Power has warned that planned power interruptions will affect parts of Nairobi County and Bungoma County on October 28, 2025. These outages are part of routine network maintenance works intended to improve reliability and system safety.


📍 Affected Areas

Nairobi County

  • Pipeline area (Catherine Ndereba Road)

  • Specific places include Scion Hospital, V Club, Joharis, Mukuru Health Centre, parts of Villafranca Estate, Kings Millennium, St. Bhakita, Takbir Distributors

  • Other affected spots: Mukuru Educational Centre, Penda Medical Centre Embakasi, Bamba 70, Unique Estate, Seyani Brothers, Kenya Builders, Honey Suckle, King of Judah Ministries, Swaminarayan School, and adjacent customers.

⚠ What You Should Do

If you live or run a business in any of the affected zones, here’s how you can prepare:

  • Plan around the outage window — many units will be without electricity for several hours.

  • Avoid scheduling power-dependent work (charging equipment, refrigeration, etc.) during the blackout period.

  • Unplug sensitive electronics beforehand to reduce risk of damage when the power returns.

  • If you depend on continuous power (medical equipment, servers, cooling), consider alternative power (battery backup / generator).

  • Stay alert to any updates from Kenya Power — sometimes schedules change or emergencies cause adjustments.

Mashujaa Day 2025: Celebrating Freedom With A Bigger Power Grid

When Kenya won self-rule, freedom meant choice, voice, and hope.

Six decades later, that promise is glowing again – this time through the quiet light of electricity spreading across the country.

In rural towns and trading centres, nights no longer fall into silence.

A welder’s torch cuts through the evening air, children bend over their notebooks under clean bulbs, and clinics hum softly through the night with their vaccine fridges alive and steady.

This is what progress looks like – the power of independence translated into the power of connection.

The Last Mile

This Mashujaa Day, as Kenya honours the heroes who fought for liberation, she also celebrates a new generation.

The men and women stringing power lines across valleys, raising transformers, and wiring homes in places that had known darkness for generations.

Each transformer is more than steel and wire – it’s a symbol of freedom renewed.

A bridge between isolation and opportunity, between potential and progress.

Through the Last Mile Electricity Connectivity Project, the government has turned a campaign pledge into a nationwide network of light.

Since 2022, over 1.18 million new households have been connected to the grid, bringing power to more than 10 million Kenyans.

Of these, 360,909 connections have come directly through the Last Mile Project – proof that the promise to deliver power to every Kenyan is being kept, one pole at a time.

Power Means Opportunities

Electricity has become Kenya’s quiet equaliser.

Once, the map of development followed privilege – towns gleamed while villages waited.

Some counties had electricity coverage above 50 percent; others barely reached 10.

Today, that gap is closing. From Turkana’s open plains to Nyeri’s highlands, light is spreading evenly, and with it, dignity.

For small traders, it means their shops stay open past dusk. For students, it means one more hour of study.

For mothers walking home, it means safety along well-lit paths. For farmers, it means irrigating one more row before calling it a day.

When the lights come on, so does possibility.

Promises Kept

Kenya’s expanding power grid is now one of the most stable in Sub-Saharan Africa – a quiet revolution built on deliberate reform and heavy investment.

Kengen has boosted generation, KETRACO has modernised transmission, and targeted projects like the Gogo Generation Plant and the Odino–Muhoroni line have brought lasting reliability to regions once plagued by outages.

Fewer blackouts, faster restorations, and longer hours of consistent power now define daily life.

For industries, that means stability; for families, confidence. Power no longer flickers under strain – it sustains the rhythm of growth.

B. E. T. A 

The Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) is visible here – not in speeches or charts, but in the steady light shining from rural homes and busy markets.

Electricity has restored dignity.

It has given farmers freedom to work longer, mothers peace of mind to move safely at night, and children the simple, powerful gift of learning after sunset.

This Mashujaa Day, Kenya celebrates not only the heroes who delivered freedom, but also those who bring its promise to life – the planners, engineers, artisans, and citizens turning electricity into opportunity.

Happy Mashujaa Day.
