The government revived the KSh 337 billion High Grand Falls Dam project along the Tana River, after its cancellation in July. Energy Principal Secretary Alex Wachira said a new framework will be finalized within two weeks by the Ministry of Energy, KenGen, Kenya Power, and EPRA. The multipurpose dam is expected to generate 500 megawatts initially, rising to 1,000 megawatts, and provide 5,600 million cubic meters of irrigation water, supporting food security and lowering power costs.
