In an initiative that will help four tea factories in nyeri county reduce power costs, the Gura Hydro Power project will now be expected to come online in mid of next year. This is according to the Kenya Tea Development Agency board chairman Mr. Peter Kanyago.
The hydro power initiative by four tea factories, namely Gathuthi, Gitugi, Iria-ini, Chinga tea factories, will generate 6MW of electricity, part of which shall benefit the local community.
“The four factories will only use 2.8 megawatts and the rest will be sold to the national grid. We can also think of providing power to the nearest tea factories in Murang’a County,” Kanyago said.
