Kenya’s electricity generation displayed notable volatility during the second half of 2025, reflecting the seasonal shifts and operational variables inherent in the national power sector.

Data covering the period from July to December shows a total output that fluctuated between 1,250 and 1,330 Gigawatt Hours (GWh), indicating a dynamic relationship between energy demand and the capacity of the country’s diverse generation mix.

The half-year period opened in July with a production of 1,300.15 GWh. However, this output saw a slight dip in August to 1,296.97 GWh, followed by a sharp decline in September, which recorded the lowest output of the period at 1,258.36 GWh.

This mid-period slump was quickly corrected in October when generation surged to 1,316.88 GWh, marking a significant recovery in the national supply.

While November saw another minor contraction to 1,306.19 GWh, the year ended with a peak performance in December, where generation reached its highest level at 1,328.52 GWh.

These figures, detailed in the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority’s biannual report for the 2025/2026 financial year, provide a window into the country’s industrial and domestic energy appetite.

The peak in December likely aligns with increased festive activity and heightened commercial demand.
