Independent System Operator (ISO) for electricity(STIMA) in KENYA is critical. Kenya Power (KP), the single national electricity utility/distributor, is the system operator who decides on energy despatch mix; conflict of interest will definitely arise since cost of generation vary across power sources. KP will tend to despatch a generation mix that has the best financial benefits to herself..at times...NOT to electricity end users. This is why Kenya is ripe for an Independent System Operator(ISO) for electricity.

The national electricity utility (KP) can not be an ISO without conflict of interest.
