About electricity in Kenya
Kenya is 240V/50Hz with Type G sockets, the British three-pin standard.

Kenya runs one of Africa’s most renewable-heavy grids, geothermal from the Rift Valley (Olkaria) provides about 40% of generation, with hydropower, wind, and growing solar making up most of the rest.
Availability
Reliable in Nairobi and tourist areas. Brief outages can occur in rural areas during the rainy seasons.
Sockets & hotels
Type G is universal. UK plugs fit perfectly.
Energy mix
Geothermal is the largest single source.
Practical tips
- A Type G adapter is essential for non-UK plugs.
- A power bank is useful on safari days when sockets are scarce.
- Voltage is 240V; modern chargers handle it.
